Hi Dan - If your experience in developing under linux is limited, then perhaps you can develop gnucash in an environment with which you are more familiar. Gnucash is not strictly a linux application. I have had success building it for Solaris, with most likely far less overall development experience than you possess. I have heard that it may even be buildable in a Windows development environment.
