Hi Marcus

The first issue is raised and wil be fixed shortly.

It should not.

The behaviour should be as follows. If the primary associatoin is deleted, the node will be deleted along with al the seconday associtaions. If a secondary association is deleted - only this information should be removed - the primary and other secondary associations will remain.

Andy

Excellent, don't know how I missed that one when searching, but thanks Andy. This might be better suited to the tech discussion forum, but is there a specific reason for the "primary" flag on the association (or, why should one link be weighted as more important than others)? Is there a reason for deleting every reference to the node if the "primary" association is deleted? Why isn't the node only deleted when the last link to the node is removed?
