Apart from an extra information chunk containing your experience with
POV, I think this is basically what we do in p.b.i
BTW how do you propose to count the experience? in POV time or wall
time? Many of us have jobs and other obligations that make it impossible
to POV full time (my estimate is 1-2% over the last year, which was
indeed a bad POV year)
