This stuff sounds great! Put it up somewhere with an open-source license so we all can get a look-see. That's going to be first step for any move to open-source, I think - putting it out there for people to look at and play with. Then you have a chance of getting a community together. From what I read, you don't have one now in the way we think of it. The question, as I see it, is not if the people that work there for THBS will support it, but will independent people spend their time and energy on it... You can only find out by trying. If you want to keep it at arms length, try sourceforge, although it sounds like you have the resources to host it yourself. geir -- Geir Magnusson Jr. [EMAIL PROTECTED] System and Software Consulting You're going to end up getting pissed at your software anyway, so you might as well not pay for it.
