Request for help with thesis

Hi

I am a master student at the faculty of computer science, University
of Oslo. My master thesis deals with collection software. One
milestone is to determine user requirements for collection software.
More precisely, I need input from potential users of such software on
needs and demands they want such software to meet.

And for this I need help from the collectors on this forum. The views
of serious collectors, like you, would be important input when
designing this software.

This is what I want to know:
In a utopian software for collection management what information about
the collectible would you like to register? For example a description
of the object or its condition may be something you may like to
register in the database. What other properties would you like to see
in a computer program for managing your collection of autographs and
related objects.

Thank you in advance, any input is much appreciated.

Wow, getting a masters by building a simple database. Things weren't that
easy even in my first year of computer science...

With all due respect you know nothing about the details of the thesis,
the implementation of the basic database is merely a very small part
of the work, something to base some of the other work on. I do not
know if user centered design was a part of your education. For me it
is important, even in such a small part of the thesis work, to stay in
contact with potential users.

tell us the truth....you got your degree out of a box of Cracker
Jacks....right?
