I view my statements regularly, but don't do any reconciliation of accounts and I have an accountant do my taxes... While I can understand how Tax software needs constant updates, it is less clear to me why personal finance software would need this. The only changes that I can imagine would be needed on a frequent base would be for automated inputing of statements from outside parties. It would seem to me that some kind of plugin/filter system which allowed users to write data input modules might help to spread the effort around. Perhaps something like the system used in the Zotero bibliography package which understands many data layouts because it makes it easy for users to write and distribute import/export plugins. Perhaps I'm missing something? Bill Bogstad
