But the other side of that argument is that screen real estate is free and too much on a screen is confusing. <g> This will be a non-issue in the near future.

This occurs in all systems of course. Being the arrogant American that I am <g> We can use the base FreePM and collect a set of documents that delineate the differences in other countries. I have also just suggested this to users in Malaysia. While I have not implemented this technically yet, the granularity available using Zope makes it possible to easily create modules (objects) that can be activated/deactivated via configuration options. Since I do not have enough knowledge about system requirements worldwide I must depend on you to draft those documents. We then can set about building the various implementations. > the ground and evaluating what to reuse how.
