hmm Would it be possible to have a small check box next to each of
these to determine if the maintainer wanst the data public or not?
also... WHo will (when it is finished) have acess to the private fields?
personally... I have no problem with anyone being able to use the
db to get my adress and home e-mail adress...hell even my phone number
all that info is easy enough to get anyway.
But...I kno wsome people are very protective of this information
