Thanks for the pointer to the other thread, I will look for it.

As far as posting to the dev list, my questions/suggestions for supporting
multiple quality levels for a given recording seemed more like something
that would need additional code/development to support, as opposed to
questions regarding how to use existing functionality. Or do you mean
appropriate procedure is to float suggestions for new functionality on the
users list first to get feedback before bugging the developers? In any
case, sorry if it was an inappropriate posting.
