AZTECHS,
I think we had a small misunderstanding. I was not referring to method of
access, eg online vs. offline (although a system with both is definetely a
plus) or methods of searching for data. Many of the currently available
database solutions offer similar or identical solutions for searching for data.
My point is that we, the teams involved in this competition, ought to find a
way to centralize the data or share data between the multitudes of scouting
systems, or we have lost the most significant advantage of even having
computerized database systems. I do agree it is important to have
different methods to search for data, but I'd rather see multiple front ends to
the same database rather than multiple front ends to a dozen different
databases.
