It would be extremely beneficial if start and stop dates could be utilized on the attributes tab. This would allow us to create clean mailing lists for publications or groups that are not memberships. A start date for when they are added, a stop date for when they are stopped and an active checkbox would go a long way on keeping these groups manageable. Also, we'll need to be able to query and export based on these fields as well.
