I have been designing interfaces to xTuple. Larry has been too. I believe Nate is also writting code that interfaces to some other type of ERP. None of which is open source. Before you start extending Dabo make sure that you utilize all of what Dabo can do. When Larry and I first started we wrote code that subclassed several of the controls only to later to discovered we did NOT have the real need. That was because Dabo actually covered what was required. IOW learn the framework before considering subclassing. After you have determined that a subclass is really needed (I didn't say it was never needed) read the source code and ask questions here. Most of the time all that is needed is to subclass a Dabo control. The next step would be to subclass at the wxPython level. Beyond that is beyond me.
