We know this already is the problem - your ideas are not new and have been discussed many many times over the last 3 years. Your entire discussion so far could probably be matched almost word for word with ones which has gone before. As Mike as already said, albeit with probably too little diplomacy, the problem lies not in formulating the concept - that's the *easy* part and, as I've said, we've already been over the design picture many times. Where it always bogs down and dies is in getting someone to do the actual work. This is a volunteer project, and we already have more than enough users willing to tell us what they'd like, believe me. We need more users willing to DO what they'd like is the problem. :-) Jordan
