I'm in strong agreement with you, Chris ... I think some major changes and simplifications are needed to make GnuCash and it's developers more nimble, and to attract more patches and active devs. I'm also in strong agreement with Derek, here. The _biggest_ change we need to make right now ... the single most important thing that will make it impossible to attract users, let alone devs, is the dependency on gtk/gnome1. It only complicates things to make any other changes before the G2 port and the next release, especially now that the G2 port is as far along as it is. Personally, I'd be willing to forgo all the in-dev code (book-closing, lots, budgeting and DB-backend) in order to get the next release out the door, in order to unblock starting those other changes. ...jsled -- http://asynchronous.org/ - `a=jsled; b=asynchronous.org; echo [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
