Re: [SL] Trend analysis

Ledgersmb's got its issues, but it's on the road to becoming rather good.  
More than one developer for a start, and the developers actually welcome 
conversation with the users, instead of asking sarcastic questions 
seemingly designed to alienate them.

Apparently enough is going on there, that Dieter finds it useful to 
monitor their development list, else he would not have had that post to 
throw in Ed's face.  Not that there's anything wrong with him monitoring 
it--this is open source, after all.
