Computer system for portable digital data capture and data distribution

1. A computer-implemented method for more than one project owner of a project to share the same project schema, the method comprising:

(a) providing a single project schema, the project schema having a plurality of objects and table structures which define the relationship between the objects, each of the objects having one or more attributes, each attribute having a value;

(b) defining a plurality of project owners for the project schema, wherein a plurality of users of a project are associated with each project owner, and the users of the project and the project owners are different entities;

(c) defining attribute values for each project owner of the project schema, wherein different project owners have one or more different attribute values while sharing the same project schema; and

(d) storing the attribute values in association with the respective project owners so that upon selection of a defined project owner, the project schema associates the appropriate values to the attributes.

2. The method of claim 1 wherein the value is a score value.

3. The method of claim 1 wherein the value is a skip value.

4. An article of manufacture for more than one project owner of a project to share the same project schema, the article of manufacture comprising a computer-readable medium holding computer-executable instructions for performing a method comprising:

(a) providing a single project schema, the project schema having a plurality of objects and table structures which define the relationship between the objects, each of the objects having one or more attributes, each attribute having a value;

(b) defining a plurality of project owners for the project schema, wherein a plurality of users of a project are associated with each project owner, and the users of the project and the project owners are different entities;

(c) defining attribute values for each project owner of the project schema, wherein different project owners have one or more different attribute values while sharing the same project schema; and

(d) storing the attribute values in association with the respective project owners so that upon selection of a defined project owner, the project schema associates the appropriate values to the attributes.

5. The article of manufacture of claim 4 wherein the value is a skip value.

6. The article of manufacture of claim 4 wherein the value is a score value.

7. A computer-implemented apparatus for more than one project owner of a project to share the same project schema, the method comprising:

(a) means for providing a single project schema, the project schema having a plurality of objects and table structures which define the relationship between the objects, each of the objects having one or more attributes, each attribute having a value;

(b) means for defining a plurality of project owners for the project schema, wherein a plurality of users of a project are associated with each project owner, and the users of the project and the project owners are different entities;

(c) means for defining attribute values for each project owner of the project schema, wherein different project owners have one or more different attribute values while sharing the same project schema; and

(d) means for storing the attribute values in association with the respective project owners so that upon selection of a defined project owner, the project schema associates the appropriate values to the attributes.

8. The apparatus of claim 7 wherein the value is a score value.

9. The apparatus of claim 7 wherein the value is a skip value.
