concerning 'Re: Itty-bitty LEGO set looker-upper':

One thing that I would like is for the actual personal data to be stored on my
own computer.  A directory on my computer to store this information to be used
by the Lugnet query is what I am thinking.  Then, this information in some
kind of text or DB format could be harvested by other non-lugnet applications
including the ability to edit/append.
I don't know how complicated this would be--and obviously would be an option
as there would likely be many folks who would not want this feature for a
number of reasons.

I'm not sure if a web site can (or should) access files directly on my
computer... but how about having an export/import function, so you
could keep a copy localy, and either download the new version when you
update on the site, or upload the new version if you made changes
offline?
