-=====Data=====
 ====Ingredients====
   * Ingredients are created in a separate view before being usable in a recipe.

   * Edit-mode of an ingredient which has already got these data associated with it, is accessed by double-clicking the ingredient, thus bringing forth the view-window, in which an Edit-button is available. It is also accessible by Right-clik -> Edit.
   * If an ingredient has these data associated with it, and when entered into a new recipe it is connected with a unit not associated with this ingredient, please inform the user of this with a direct link to edit-mode of this ingredient's data and an option to select the pre-associated unit and have the entered amount converted to this unit.
+====Amounts====
+  * Each ingredient must be specified by an amount. This is to be put as integers and fractions - no decimals. If decimals are entered, convert to fraction. Amounts are to be entered as free text.
+====Units====
+  * Units are created in a separate view and correlated to all other relevant units (ie. 1000 g = 1 kg = 35 oz = 4,44 cup) before being usable in a recipe.
+  * Unit-view contains the following options:
+    * Create unit (type in singular and plural forms and their common abbreviation where applicable)
+    * Convert unit (a unit calculator - type in amount, select unit to be converted from and unit to be converted to).
+  * Double-clicking an existing unit brings up a window for editing this unit.
+  * Automatic convertion from typed-in units to chosen set of standard units. Ie. convert from //kg// to //g// or from //fl.oz// to //dl// or //l// above for instance 1 //l//.
+====Preparation method===
+  * Preparation methods are sometimes but not necessarily attached to an ingredient in a recipe. The text in the preparation method-field is written as free text and no suggestions should be made by the program.
+====Categories====
+  * A category can contain another category by symbolic links.
+----------------------------------
+  * Categories are created in a separate view before being usable in a recipe.
+  * Subcategories are to appear at the top of a category (and not for instance under the letter with which they start).
+  * Subcategories can be mapped to appear in multiple categories (ie. the category "Kager" with all its subcategories is also a subcategory of "Desserter" and "Te og kaffe").
+  * Various recipes should be categorizable in several categories and/or subcategories, also several subcategories of the same category (ie. a pizza with minced beef is due in both the "Minced meat" and "Pizza"-subcategories of "Dinner").
+====Images====
+  * Containing copyright information.
+  * Containing origin.
+  * Notify if this is my own image or "borrowed".
