Yves got the rule change, but not the way he wanted. Ken ruled.so the topic should be closed for Yves. He keeps his data where it belongs locally

I am not sure that this is germane to the discussion at hand.  I simply posted, in the spirit of this thread, what I believe, based on the discussions that keep coming up, are the main problems some people have with the program and what the solutions to those problems would be.  No more, no less.

I think the idea in general isn't a bad one, but I think it should not be done ...

While you have the right to express your opinion, it seems awfully strange that you would do so in the manner you chose. It must be apparent to you that a great amount of restraint is being observed by most participants. Coming in at the last minute, announcing that you disagree with our project, and then provoking controversy causes me to question your purpose. I took the bait, but I hope nobody else does, and we all stay calm.

I think my post came up wrong, I really think making the "perfect profile" is a good idea, but I am not so sure if this all is too much for the average user. But I just read what PARSEC said, I think I really missed something in the translation here, if there is a "place" where the perfect profile is build and then later submitted to the online database, then I support this approach, sorry again for misunderstanding.

@mediadogg:
As for being overwhelmed (that post is only about a day's old but already two pages back): do not get all content issues get to you; these are the trees in the forest.

My suggestion would be to look again at your OP and see which refinements could be made on the project management side. For instance, sharpening the borders between tasks rather than going in-depth with tasks. Refining/redefining products/results for tasks. Defining timelines: probably will not be adhered too in detail, but it produces focus where otherwise discussions will meander along for ages.

Who have we actually on board is another thing.
For instance, many are jumping into content issues, but I've seen few posts of people actually volunteering, however small, for the proposed project. Seems a bit contradictory though, going at length on content and not volunteering...

As discussions go, here and previous threads on thoughts like the one at hand, discussions will go on contentwise. So, from my perspective, don't get lost in the forest of individual ideas that need actual debating in the 'tasks'; all that already happens here is encouraging as far as interest is concerned but a bit premature nonetheless. And yes, on this I am as guilty as the rest

      I wish!

Hope you guys cut me a bit of slack on the document. It's coming along, but it is hard to keep focus with all this going on ...
