Not really. I got stuck in the query design phase. I didn't even generate any tables :( > There's a chance that I may be able to talk my client into > putting a web app guy on this for a few days to make it pretty. You misunderstand. I don't think a pretty website is seriously needed. Just a consistant output format with the results in a tarball complete with information about the system itself that people can upload. Then anyone can download a few and combine them as they want. Just an ftp server, maybe gforge or whatever. As for the use of cost estimates, I think it's the same problem from different angles. Comparing the estimates with actual time is determining where the current system is wrong. Comparing actual times with eachother might tell you what the model should be. As has been pointed out, the raw data is what's needed. From there you can draw conclusions. Have a nice day, -- Martijn van Oosterhout <kleptog@svana.org> http://svana.org/kleptog/ > Patent. n.
