Pocket Genealogist users,

If you aren't participating in the "Public Beta", there are some new
significant changes to Pocket Genealogist that you might like to try before
the 2.94 release is officially released.

The TMG GenBridge "direct" import has been changed to be a "direct" import
to the TMG Version 5 and 6 Projects. (We are now reading the databases
directly) It is very similar to the GenBridge import with the following
exceptions:

- You can now select which Custom Flags are imported.

- All sources are imported including uncited ones.

- The source type and the source element names are imported. (So instead of
using the "group" name as the label for the source element, it will use the
name that is used by the template that you selected) For example, instead
of "Short Title" it might be "Short Book Title". Instead of "Author" it
might be "Informant".

- Support for Citation and Witness Memo's. (Added with Version 6 of TMG)

The GenBridge import worked well, but we are positioning ourselves to
provide a more "TMG" like experience and possible 2-way synchronization with
a future release of Pocket Genealogist.

If you wish to try it out you can find it here, please send an email to the
Public Beta email list with your comments once you have a chance to try it.
