Hi community, Who would be inclined to answer on detailled accouting aspects? Since it's wiki based, there are no needs that only one person takes all the burden, we can share. But maybe then it should be reviewed by OFBiz-accounting knowledgeable persons.
Hi Joar, I already 2 noticed points and removed the 1st : 1. OFBiz is no longer "In transitional phase". Apache OFBIz is an ASF (Apache Software Fundation) TLP (Top Level Project) since July 2006 2. You (Josh Berkus rather it seems) say: "More importantly, it would never be installable in standalone mode on a desktop machine; it would always need to be a server install. ". This is untrue you can run OFBiz as a standalone application on a desktop machine as well. Of course if you use a server, people, through their browsers, can access to this server instance which allows to *share information* and minimize resources consumption. As I'm not quite sure I understood you well, I did not change that point. I have updated the Technical session from * Java * Jython * Groovy to * Java * XML * Groovy * Freemarker * Javascript * CSS * Ant You can rely on https://www.ohloh.net/p/Apache-OFBiz/analyses/latest/languages_summary for details I have also updated https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_OFBiz#Open_Source_Libraries that you used as ref. See my comment on the link in Wikipedia: this OFBiz wiki page is deprecated but gives updated links (I did no update more than that, I mean not the Wikipedia table in the Open_Source_Libraries section) HTH Jacques On Thursday, November 14, 2013 10:39 PM Joar Wandborg <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello, I'm working for Software Freedom Conservancy, Inc. on their > Non-Profit Accounting Software project[1]. > > I am currently assessing existing open-source projects[2] for their > fitness as financial software for non-profit organizations according to > the use cases[3] contributed by conservancy, others. > > I would greatly appreciate help to assess OFBiz.
