Some good progress



I made some good progress this week. I got some of the ordinances saving, like sealing to spouse, and solved a tricky problem I was having editing the husband and wife from the family edit window. There's still an issue with children, but that should be easier now that I've gotten the parents working.

I also started to organize the UI files a bit. All of the UI was in a single file, and it was getting too large to keep track of, so I've started splitting it off into separate files, and that took me longer than I thought it would. I originally split off the individual list and family list, as they are pretty self-contained. I'm not entirely happy with the way the UI is turning out, but that will be an excellent area for the beta test to get feedback on users which way they like the UI to work.

There's only about 4-5 more significant issues in loading/saving individuals and families, and that part should be done. Unfortunately, one of those issues is quite sticky, and could take a couple weeks all by itself. Once that is done, I just have to finish wiring up the UI to the data, and I probably need to write at least some basic documentation and help before the first beta test.
