If you get corrected coordinates on the map, you should definitely get corrected coordinates in the VGPS, in the corrected latitude/longitude columns.

However, your corrected coordinates will not be shared with others with access to that list. This might change in the future, but it won't ever be a default setting to share solutions.

Then a shared list in Vgps with mysterycaches for planing is more or less.. hmm,,,, :)
Depends on how you see it. It's still a list of what you will log, and the locations are most of the time fairly correct.

But if it's a mystery trail, it's pretty useless yes.

What I have done personally, is that we add the solutions in usernote 1, then everyone can copy them from there. It's not very practical though. But then, the most honest way is that everyone solves them themselves. Which obviously hasn't been the case for me always, since I presented our solution, which involved sharing.
