Hi all - Fineract was contributed by Mifos.org which began life in the world of Microfinance, however has since then expanded to a broader concept of Financial Inclusion. And, the concept behind contributing to Apache was to broaden the appeal even more. That is, the fineract platform is intended to serve finTechs and any number of financial service providers. I believe that it is important to have a landing page that aligns with that vision, gives people a way to see their projects fitting into fineract, and I think that the current articulation might brand the project as "microfinance only".
To that end, I think it would be useful to be more general-purpose and more aspirational in our introductory language, which is at the URL: http://fineract.apache.org/ I propose this *new version*, which removes specific "features" (which evolve over time) and emphasizes functional areas. https://goo.gl/jQwTiw If there is someone who wants to edit further, or comment, please do so. PMC members - how do you want to treat this? - does it require a formal vote or can it be changed on the basis of "contribution offered, considered by members, and accepted?", or is this a merge request? Thanks, James Dailey
