Well the ones that stick in my mind are:
a) Objectify REPORTS
b) Allow coding of ++, etc
c) 2 gig limit removal

I'm sure that there are MANY more duplicates.
Duplicates cheapen the value of the list, either by becoming a measure of degree of importance (a reader could conclude that more occurrences of the same means more interest) or by becoming simply more noise (and by inference a poor quality list) to the reader.

The trouble is, of course, that as presently delivered, and with the existing search mechanism, it is not at all easy to prove this EITHER WAY. I am confident that there are lots of duplicates and that we would be better off without them.

Fine, I can understand that. But surely DISCUSSIONS can commence now. After all, VFP8 will only be delivered some time between January and June of 2003. This gives 3-9 months to develop a better system for wish list handling.
