That is an awesom application...

I just checed it out...

Only two things I can think of that it needs for use over here..

1. MySQL support..
2. Australian GST support..

I am going to have a read thought the code and see if I can't provide those
requirements..

In theory, if its using DBI to access DB, then it should be possible, unless
they are using stuff specific to Pg.

The GST is another whole ballgame, My Girlfriend is a Bookkeeper, so if she
can make me understand what is required for Aust GST.. then I will see if I
can do it..


I am really excited, sql-ledger is an application I have been thinking about
writing for ages.. didn't know someone already had.

Now *this* is the kind of linux application development that gets me
giddy. *grin* Once you can make a business case to replace the back-end
systems of a business with linux, *then* you have a real shot at
converting the desktops (you listening Mark? *hehehe*).

I might have to have Mr. Weaver see if he can't get an installation of
this running on one of the boxes at work so we can do a real comparison
study with Best/Sage MAS-200 SQL. It'd be interesting to see how this
stacks up against a MSSQL mid-range accounting system.

Hmm...another spring project...
