If we used .ged files, I believe there is software available to not only convert to HTML, but to find similarities and combine trees, which is something I have been thinking of doing with this Pyle/Pile family info. That could be very interesting, especially if we could "see" the tree as it grows and "see" which of us comes in where. Wonder if all of that is totally possible. I'll do some checking on the combining ged software.
