czajkowskihttp://www.techworld.com.au/article/330244/amberdms_gives_open_source_accounting_green_light  ohhhhh13:31
czajkowskiaccounting folks13:31
DJonesczajkowski: From that article "“A lot of people use whatever software their accountants tell them to use,” he said. “Getting involved with accounting companies is an important step to getting wider and more mainstream uptake of [open source] accounting products.” is very true, although a lot of the time its also down to the clients expectations and experience of staff13:33
DJonesIt'll be interesting to see how that goes, although if it needs the user to set up their own webserver to run the system on, that could put some off, certainly sounds like an interesting prospect in development though13:36
