Great News
Any rough idea of a schedule for 3.1? Adding sub-types is great news. It addresses the primary conceptual weakness in an otherwise excellent system. BTW I agree with not supporting multiple sub-types for a contact in the initial release. In my experience "multiple inheritance" as it were has innumerable subtleties and pitfalls. On the other hand, single inheritance would be nice. Can't tell from your description whether it's possible to create Student as a subtype of Individual, then GradStudent as a subtype of Student, or whether there will only be one level of subtyping. But one level will be better than none. :-)
