Bill, thanks for your compliments and your suggestions -- all great ones!

1. Yes, adding an "Other" field to each category is a good idea. What we've already done is add a "Misc" category at the very bottom of each checklist, with several fields in it. Hopefully, that will cover most "other" needs for now.

2. We had talked about offering the option to enter weights in either oz or g, but all of our own data is already in g, so we wanted to keep everything completely uniform. To help users who only know their gear weights in oz, we've already added an easy weight converter right at the top of each checklist. On a related note, as I hope you noticed, when compiling your pack, the weight is output in both lb/oz and g.

3. Yes, although we already have water listed in 3 volumes (pint, quart and gallon), we'll go ahead and break it down into oz, as well. Same with the liquid fuel. Great idea!

4. The system already utilizes a "print" CSS file, which allows a clean print of just your compiled gear. However, this is a member-only feature, so you will need to register before being able to print directly via the site functions.

5. Yes, an email/share feature is already on our to-do list. We had hoped to have it done for this Alpha release, but we didn't quite get it done yet. We figured adding more items was a higher priority at the moment. Be assured though, it will be added fairly soon.

6. Yep, we'd had also considered a "Demo List" feature, but it didn't make our priority cut. We weren't entire sure of its value. If we get more requests for it, we'll make it happen.

Again, thanks for your compliments, your suggestions and your time!
