I am happy that there are people like you who find it useful.
As mentioned, this is actually an older version, and the newer version 
supports additional features such as considering preferred sizes and 
soft constraints using linear optimization. But the main concepts are 
all the same.
I will try and prepare a C# source code package with examples in the 
next days.
