The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: GnuCash::SQLite
DSLIP: bdpOp
description: A module to access GnuCash SQLite files
userid: HOEKIT (Hoe-Kit Chew)
chapterid: 7 (Database_Interfaces)

rationale:
I have considered Finance::GnuCash::SQLite - and will request that
if GnuCash::SQLite is rejected.
However, a root-level namespace seems more appropriate because: 1)
GnuCash is a widely used open-source accounting package with plenty
of functionality that other developers can add programmatic access
to e.g. adding reporting functionality (GnuCash::Reporting), tax
computation (GnuCash::Tax), etc. 2) Hopefully a root-level namespace
will attract more developers to contribute to provide sorely needed
programmatic interface to GnuCash.
Back in 2010, the editor of LWN bemoaned the lack of programmatic
access to GnuCash. (See http://lwn.net/Articles/387967/)
As of 2014, little has changed in the Perl world. There are now
python-bindings but its poorly documented. Hopefully, this may be a
start for the Perl world.
