Will do.

I won't be working on ck-ledger at work.  All development will be done on my 
free time.  The GPL will be the license for the code.

What we do now is to manually enter these types of transactions.  Would that 
work for you?

The sensitive data will be kept in a separate and optional module that will 
provide HUD compliance to those that need it.

I'll start off with the waiting list.  Here's a quick run down:
- applicant is added to the waiting list and is date/time stamped
- optional preferences are given to affect the position in the waiting list
- applicants are transferred to newly available units based on waiting list 
sort criteria

Since tenants are a/r accounts, should I use the same a/r ledger to keep track 
of tenants?  Or should I put them into an a/r subsidiary ledger and track 
them in a different set of tables?  What do you think?

Hey, CK, will you be adding the prefix 'phpgw_ckledger_' to all of the tables? 

Is it cool if I add it to the tables I create?
