It depends Mauro. Some people (and I'm among them), prefer people to give
them the info, and they enter their data by themselves. I guess that's the
most secure way to be sure everything is ok

Yeap, for each newly added entity an ID is given.
That's mandatory.

No, the ID must be given by GenJ, not your relatives

You can do, or do what I said above.
You can ask them to use genj and create their own gedcom file.
Once done, you gather all those gedcom files, and you merge them using the
tool created by Frederic. You got it already among your reports if you
downloaded everything yesterday.

My favorites could be : 1 - enter the data by myself :-) 2 - ask them to
create a gedcom of their own and use the merge report.
Maybe others will have different ways to manage that.

I can write both, but if we want more people to understand you we can go
french.
Alors partons vers le français. ;-) pour l'avenir, mais si tu as des
difficultés à comprendre, n'hésite pas à le dire pour qu'on repasse de
temps en temps vers l'anglais.
