[Dx4win] How much QSL manager data is useful?

Thanks for all the comments so far.  Some common themes are emerging:

- Quality is more important than quantity

- Data going back more than 5 or 10 years is not very valuable

- No one seems to rely on the DX4WIN data by itself, they usually 
  confirm it themselves using another source (like GOLIST or QRZ.COM)
  before sending off the card.

Going forward (after the next release), I'll probably start limiting the list
to the most recent 10 years worth of data.  I somehow need to distinguish older
one-time operations from stations that have had the same manager for more than
10 years.
