Re: [SQL-Ledger-users] Another Perl Accounting Package, PGSQL List

[John O'G. <ogo...@ho...>]

I am very interested as a developer.

The SQL-ledger project appeals to me because it
1. is based on very simple database schema
2. works with postgreSQL

Do you envisage that your application will be opensource and free?
I develop software applications mostly for small insurance companies
and brokers using Informix database software.
I don't have any accounting software.

Until now, I have not regarded any free database engines as
acceptable for commercial applications. I think PostgreSQL is
very nearly there now.
