I would never make my accounting system accessible from the Net. I would like it to be accessible on the LAN, though, and https seems like a good way to do that. > Also, using a web interface pretty much requires the application be > multiuser. That's a given, isn't it? I'd also want a text interface.

I would not be interested in a non-free package. I have a toy system I spent some time on after I dropped out of the Gnucash project. It uses Python and Postgresql and illustrates some ideas I was unable to sell to the Gnucash folks, such as using a journal as the fundamental data structure. I haven't looked at it in years, so it has probably suffered bit-rot. -- John Hasler [EMAIL PROTECTED] (John Hasler) Dancing Horse Hill Elmwood, WI -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
