Cool. That was the aim. I've been getting plenty of positive feedback 
about the simplicity here at Lancaster. We have a large community of 
small business owners using Yaft in intense but spaced out bouts and 
they are finding it pretty transparent to use.

There isn't currently a single contributor view, but that could be added 
without a lot of difficulty. If you could submit a feature request in 
JIRA, that would be great.

No, but I am getting quite a few requests to add it! Again, if you could 
try and encapsulate your use case in a JIRA, that would place it on the 
agenda.
