Ah, the difference one letter makes... I didn't mean to sound so arrogant, I
meant to write "DO you plan", not "SO you plan".

Tch!

Great!

Out of curiosity: so you plan on adding a "roles" functionality to event
templates?

Hi Michel,

I have the "previously referenced witness" check working correctly in
3.1.11, so qualifiers on the [W] tag will not prevent the [WWR] code from
correctly including only witness names that haven't yet appeared.

Regarding full names: I'll implement [WWR+] as well.

Already implemented in 3.1.11: a way for [WW] and [WWR] to distinguish
between witness lists having only one name and witness lists with two or
more names...

Best regards,

-- Bill
