I have some help from some service providers setting up the system and we've already started to work on the gui which includes Ajax for easier use. There are also many other options I'd like to have for my business and that hopefully I could give back to the ofbiz community too.
Do you guys have any kind of bounty system or a wish list where likeminded people could collaborate and get things done at a quicker pace? For example, I'd like to see a good CRM in the core of ofbiz with something like zimbra being used for the calendaring and email. If this were even feasible and there were likeminded people who would be interested, then we could pool our resources and time, etc. Any suggestions?
