is there an appropriate way for me have back-and-forth "troubling shooting session" with kapqa?
Go for it.
Possibly you together want to work out a more direct and private chat channel, e.g., using direct messaging on IRC libera.chat, or email or something. But continuing this thread is ok too.

Perhaps posting updates to this forum might be most useful/appropriate when you and kapqa have something ready for testing or if you get stuck and need more eyes on the problem. And as ralph.ronnquist suggested . . . you can communicate one on one on IRC. It is a very efficient way to collaborate.

I am from a bygone era of IT antiquity, when we wore a suit and tie to work and had lab coats.
The desire of my soul is to be helpful, yet it no longer has the ability to relevantly do so.
And every interaction is an indelible record on the Internet.
Gone are my opportunities to enjoy cordial, collegial, ephemeral discussions at a desk, in a conference room, or over lunch - face to face.
And also to offer "an extra set of eyes" on a problem, and to be a "sounding board" where the solution suddenly occurs to the one describing the problem, because he had someone to listen to him "talk it out."
I didn't find the particulars I was seeking. But, I did receive what I needed. And I thank you.
This shall be my last Topic, but this ol' codger may still occasionally post.

WOW! I didn't see that coming . . .
Sorry that this forum was unable to provide an experience that could fulfill your needs and expectations.
Wishing you all the best. We'll be here if you change your mind . . .

That would be "retirement"...
Until next time...

Never degrade yourself nor underestimate the impact you have. For example your posts/ energy got me reading alot more about Linux over last few days than I ever have.
All the best
