Thanks, but I think you are giving me too much credit, though :-)

Cheers,

Peter

I don't know if you have noticed the Chinese and Indians taking over the 
world's banking, industry and health.  We are lucky to have Peter as a master.

It's hard to find a good balance between abstraction/flexibility and

yet sold on how plugins (all the way down to the level of defining
card types, multiple fields, etc.) will work. If I distribute a deck
based upon complex fields, layout, etc., it seems like anyone who uses
that deck will have a tedious learning curve identifying, downloading
and installing all the plugins required by that deck.

As I told you a few times before in private conversation, please don't make any 
assumptions like that without knowing how libmnemosyne2 is designed. 
User-defined card types are stored in the database without the need for 
plugins, and interoperate well with the sync and export functionalities. Also, 
there is no issue whatsoever with the card browser.

If you want 'proof' of this, for cloned card types you also don't need to 
distribute any plugins. User-defined N-sided card types can make use of exactly 
the same machinery, it's just that the UI side of things has not been written 
yet...
