 +===== Procedure =====
 +In case you have a feature (or file format) request, please follow these steps:
 +
 +  * check whether (and if so since when) the feature/format you wish to request is already on the list below
 +  * write an email to **//info (AT) neuroelf (DOT) net//**, stating the request (or asking to prioritize the request)
 +  * wait for a reply by email and also...
 +  * check back on this page to see if it's on the list or the status has been updated

 +| physio confounds          | Lauren Atlas       | 4/18/2011     | support to automatically create confound regressors from physio (ECG) data, still needs specs!  | in pipeline  |
 +| better subject-specific VOI support  | Hakwan Lau  | 4/18/2011  | support for subject specific VOIs in ne_mdmvoicondavg -> MDM::VOITimeCourses, and throughout  | in pipeline  |
 +| VOI time course plot      | Jochen Weber       | 4/20/2011     | option to plot VOI time courses (probably from within ne_mdmvoicondavg dialog), incl. PRT information  | in pipeline  |
 +| multi-study (MDM) dialog enhancements  | SCAN Unit  | 4/20/2011  | add RunTimeVars.Discard inspection/update feature into dialog; also feature to see condition names from models, options for single-trial GLM and PPI  | in pipeline  |
 +| fmriqasheet enhancements/fix  | SCAN Unit      | 4/20/2011     | 1. percentage of outlier volumes is incorrect; 2. UI should get a dialog to assess multiple scans, give results for multiple scans, have options (e.g. realignment); 3. link fmriqasheet output to object.RunTimeVars.Discard field  | in pipeline  |
 +| SDM::CalcBetas            | SCAN Unit          | 4/20/2011     | make it optional to first project out confounds (filters, motion) of both data and remaining model and then perform regression (thorough testing after implementation!!)  | in pipeline  |

-| importrfxglm bug fix      | Jochen Weber       | 5/18/2010     | currently the condition selection in importrfxglmfromspms does not allow to specify the conditions to be imported; while they can be easily removed after the import is complete, it would of course be nicer for that feature to work!  | in pipeline  | +| weighted data             | Jochen Weber       | 4/12/2011     | start with data acquisition, weights = 1, then, during each processing/analysis step, carry over weights as estimate of plausibility of data; use weights for all subsequent steps  | not sure yet  |
