If it's important for you, why didn't you contributed ? I suppose the answer is the same than in our case. (not enough knowledge, not enough time to acquire this knowledge, not enough money to acquire this time, ... or, in another words: others priorities) I can garantee you that if we had enough ressources (time, money, users, ...), we should have developped everything that is important. But developping an ERP is a huge tasks and everything seems important, it's just a matter of time and priorities. Speed improvements has not been a priority, as all our customers use Tiny ERP without speed complaints and the others priorities were higher (dashboards, bugfixing, fully operationnal accounting module, web client, ...) In our case, priority is conducted by: * Customers * Partners * Community (our R&D budget) > Like I'm in question : > When the main SVN repositories will be opened (read access) to everybody ? > (and not only to partners that have to pay 8000) The answer has been the same for everything we opened in the past: 1.5 years ago, we released the user doc, 4 months ago: the technical doc, this month we will release all our modules (200+). Our goal is to open as much as possible Tiny ERP, and I think we succeeded in that direction as we are the most open ERP. But our goal is also to garantee a fast growing curve of the software and the associated free or not services (documentations, support, website, kernel devel, modules, svn access, partner's offers, trainings, ...). And we can do that because we pay our employees. We open new aspects of Tiny ERP (and cut a part of our revenues) every time the company becomes a little bit stronger to garantee that we can still support the growth of the product. And each time we open something new, we improve our partner's services in counterpart. PS: the first partner program is at 1950 EUR, not 8000 EUR. If you decide to use or to offer services on Tiny ERP, your profit will be much more higher than that. So, that's not so expensive, compared to the service we offer. _______________________________________________ Tinyerp-users mailing list http://tiny.be/mailman/listinfo/tinyerp-users
