We've marked this item as planned for development - but we'll need your help! We need to first decide on the attributes we want to track. Here's the current working list - please add your comments if you think we're missing anything!

Here is the full list from Overstreet. Frankly, this is too much, but a sub-set of these might be a good place to start - I have put an * by the subset I would start with. I also have a spreadsheet I would be happy to share that has all of the Category Definitions per Grade - I took these directly from my Overstreet Book. For example Staple Tears for 9.2 is None Allowed, and for 9.0 is only the slightest tears allowed. I have them all mapped from .5 to 10 for all categories above...

If you want to look at my spreadsheet - just give me an email address to send it to...

Thanks for looking at this as a potential feature!
