I am agree with you Chris, the OFBiz is an excellent framework; OFBiz is like "The Beauty and The Beast". The Beast for the newcomers, but if we understand the framework, you will find "The Beauty of the OFBiz".

Ofbiz is an excellent application development framework. I think that any efforts that would focus on selling this aspect would attract newcomers to the project. In the past, I have recommended ofbiz as a development framework to a few architects and senior developers that I have worked with. When they take a look at the ofbiz site, their first reaction is to reject ofbiz as they think it is just another ecommerce application. I know a few of the users on the mailing list would like to see the core development framework of ofbiz separated from the other components. It would be interesting to know how many of the committers for ofbiz that DON'T use ofbiz primarily for ecommerce. I think that would be the main stumbling block to separating the core development framework. There are some interesting areas being worked on that such as Hans Bakker's BIRT implementation and /Jacques Le/ Roux Axis integration for complex types that will give the development framework even more power.
