Thank you @leodf1 for the list. Just remember that any of the enhancement entries will need to be reviewed by the lead developer and only he can approve/disapprove.

Before I forget, thank you for all your efforts and input? Also know that I am assigning all of these to the lead developer. His workload is definitely growing so don't expect things to move quickly.

I understand.

I appreciate your work. I'm sure he does too.

Thanks
