Ahhh, but with the introduction of the LogBook of the World ARRL project, we will just submit the QSOs automatically to league. At that point, things get really simple because in keeping with the direction of all the suggestions, DXbase will be reduced to a tiny little window that pops up. Click it, and you'll get a report of what you've worked, confirmed, who confirmed you, and your current award standing. It would also seem that for those who still want to see all the stuff on the current screen that could be an option. It may be that folks will need to purchase a 36 inch monitor though, so they can see all the things they seem to want on the screen at one time<g>.
Yes, there seems to be some interesting suggestions. But as you know, the ongoing development of DXbase in terms of future releases didn't start yesterday. It's something that goes on all year long. The sudden wrath of ideas ( while some of them seem very worthwhile) can't possibly all be considered and implemented within the limited amount of time left to complete the next release. Some of the ideas will have to be filed away for some other time.
