Christian,

Part 2 of the planned ACIS-RAS changes includes:

> For multiple affiliations, let users specify percentages for
> each. Support it in ReDIF profile export.

I need a detailed description of this feature. How will it look and
behave? In particular, i have the following questions:

- would we allow entering any free number between 0 and 100? (as a
text input field.) Or do we allow choice of only certain values, like
10, 20, 30, 40, etc? (as a drop-down select control)
- do we ensure that the sum of the percentages equals exactly 100 or not?
- what happens when a user removes an affiliations (with some
percentage assigned to it)?
- how do we treat a case of three equally-important affiliations?
(33%? 33.33%? 30%?)
- do we sort the affiliations in the order of decreasing percentage
automatically?

I can prepare mockups after you answer these questions.

-ivan
