Today's Topics: 1. Re: Accounting and Tax software (was regarding Java JRE versus openjdk) (Gora Mohanty)

Haven't tried kalculate, but my uniformed impression is that it requires
OpenLX, and I am not sure how actively the application, or the OS, are
maintained.

I had thought that development of GnuKhata was also stalled, but there
seems to be recent activity on the source code versioning system linked to
from their site. I will look again into GnuKhata.

Cannot commit to anything at present, but Taxspanner is working on a book
of accounts system, and in principle we want to open-source it. The
development needed, and the mechanics of actually open-sourcing the code
probably makes this at least a year away.

All in all, the situation is pretty sad when it comes to open-source
accounting software.

Gora


IT for Change has been using Front Accounting for its financial accounting for two years now and it has been a very effective replacement to Tally.
Most NGOs can use it.
We do payroll , fixed assets accounting in a spreadsheet and do not have sales/purchases and so have not used those features in Front Accounting (www.FrontAccounting.com
