Definitely need that, don't we? I'll put it on the list.

Also, there should be an "overall" save for adding/editing projects when edit is complete (that is, saves complete edit and returns user to project's main page).


We'll have to agree to disagree on this one. Most changes after a project has been uploaded will involve a change to one, maybe two fields at a time. Updating the entire project at once after several changes would result in excess load on the server (especially in the case of specifications, which already involve a big chunk of processing) and increase the chances that one user might overwrite the changes made by another user. I think updating one field at a time is the best balance between performance and data integrity.

Unless people really start complaining about the current functionality, I think it should remain as it is.
