Forwarding a thread with Brian Kirsch about how to model the In and  
Out collections, given that we will have users sharing  
communications. This is related to the discussion about the  
Communications status and WHO columns as they relate to the Stamping  
Storyboards: http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/design/2006-
