@sraps, Again, sorry, but while some of your arguments are perfectly valid (certification critics) I think you are doing a wrong trial to Tiny. Really I don't think they are the villains you describe. The Odoo offer for instance is exactly the same code base than the GPL release. Most if not all Tiny customers had their modules directly put in addons/extra-addons in the open: like the "dm" module for instance. Tiny even selects their customers preferentially if they want to release their module in the open (in case they don't want, as long as their is only one single implementation and no further re-sale this is not a GPL violation).
Yes there are lots of issues, as said in this topic. Still, for me the main reason there are those issue is simply that Tiny can't tackle the world alone. They have very limited resources for building a generic ERP. Any small national specialized ERP editor has more cash en more skilled engineers than them. But Tiny is just going to rival SAP on the SMB market IMHO in a few years, so the challenge is huge, leading to such misunderstanding. Want figures, then read or Google-translate that article: http://www.trends.be/fr/economie/high-tech/12-1637-48491/et-si-ce-jeune-belge-etait-le-nouveau-bill-gates--.html#topPage "85 personnes" and "un peu moins de 1 million d'euros de ventes en 2008, 700.000 euros pour les six premiers mois de 2009" Take it as your want, but it means that turnover per capita is less than 15 000 euros. How well would you be doing earning so little? So I mean, Tiny is already doing miracles, let's be constructive to move things forward, but no need to accuse them wrongly when the issue is just that the task is still oversized for them.
