Thank you Karen,
I am sure my students and I will soon fill this wishlist. I will
consolidate our ideas and proof-read before posting.
Great idea, thank you
Nader

> Hi All,
>
> Sorry for the multiple postings:
>
> On the eQuest list-serve right now we're developing a wish-list of things we
> wish the program could do, but doesn't. It occurred to me that we should
> start a master list of things that most programs can't do, or don't do well,
> and make this info available to people developing modeling programs.
>
> I'll volunteer to keep a list. Please send me:
>
> 1. your wishlist: proof-read please! Please fully describe your wishes so
> that anyone coming from any simulation program can understand. Please
> create three categories of comments:
>
> General: these requrests should be regarding navigation, ease of
> use, and general program set-up
> Specific: these requests should be regarding program calculation
> abilities, libraries, etc.
> Functionality: Please describe any attributes of a program you
> use now that you find important or extremely useful
> Contact: Please let me know if it's ok to put your name and
> email address next to your comments. This way if anyone reads your comment
> and finds it useful or has more questions, they can contact you!
>
> 2. If you are a program developer, please send me your contact info so that
> I can send you the master list when I'm finished.
>
> Hopefully if we can get a comprehensive list together, we'll get some much
> needed functionality in the new programs coming out.
>
> Feel free to send this on to other simulation list-serves

> Thanks!!
