I doubt the above specs are as difficult as you _probably_ feel ( i hope i am not reading the opposite of what you intend to say.... :) ) When spreadsheets can be ported online and when there are so many web2.0 toolkits reaching "decenly documented" status, there is really a good chance that this will even be *easy*. Just two or three possessed web2.0 coders can get it running upto v0.8 to v1.0_rc1 in one month's time. Actually lesser. After all, it's a *fake* ;-) The thing gnu/linux hackers have probably not seen is the sheer inertia of desktop-only users. Only if you spoon-feed them will they think of *their* own good. You have to cajole them into helping *themselves*. My endless frustrations at explaining linux and free software to interested but lazy people make me suggest this. ** I should be just a url away. ** And they should be "advised to bookmark it" as well. Just my thoughts based on my experiences. 2stepsback -- ubuntu-marketing mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-marketing
