alanw, thanks for the feedback and sorry about the delayed response. Allowing BB code within the posts is a good idea and one that we will look into doing, it is something that we have planned on adding actually, but have not had the chance to get into place. I can see where you are coming from when it comes to the categories of restaurants, but be we would like to be as precise as possible with these to make it easy for people to find the reviews that they are looking for. I have added Catalan as a selectable type.

I will have to look into the issue with the filtering of characters as well as you have mentioned. I will use this post to keep you informed of changes and updates regarding this. (It may be a while as we have alot going on with the Freddies currently) Thanks again for you feedback,

-Tim

EDIT:
I have made some changes that will allow the use of accented characters in the reviews area as well as fixes the bug in the map link field that was causing you problems. I also went into the record for the restaurant that you submitted and updated it to be as you intended it to be. I will be looking into BB code in the future and will update here about it...
