Oh thanks Ben for the explanation! I really don't like Google's policies and don't want to give my data to them when creating a Gmail mailbox (the prerequisite to use CoinBox list). I think that freedom is something to extend beyond a GPL license: the community resources. I'm sure CoinBox POS is a good project, but at this moment LemonPOS is the one that can be supported. I propose to try reviving both projects but: - Reorganize the community resources better independency from Google and other tracker companies. - Open the existing resources (wiki, web, bug tracker, repository, etc.) to new administrators, users and developers. - Update distributions packaging. Everybody who want to be involved could make an online meeting one day at an UTC hour.
