[SQL-Ledger-users] J2EE version of Sql-Ledger looking for a home

[Ted S. <emo...@me...>]

Hi,

In a nutshell my message is this...I have an 80% complete J2EE  version of
SQL-Ledger and I will send the code to anyone that requests it.

A few months ago I started creating a J2EE version of SQL-Ledger.  At the
time I was looking for an open-source office application with a web front
end for which I would develop a Swing-based front-end.  This was supposed to
be a demo project for a company that was going to build a Swing-based
front-end for a major accounting ASP.  This demo was supposed to be used to
convince the client that a Swing-based front-end would be superior to a
web-based front-end.  Anyway, the demo never even got close to happening.

To achieve this my first goal was to rewrite SQL-Ledger to J2EE technology
(to encapsulate the accounting login in EJBs and make it possible to have
more than one kind of interface to those EJBs, like a web interface, Swing
interface, XML interface, etc).

This first goal, of porting SQL-Ledger and its web interface to J2EE is
mostly complete, there are still some unfinished sections in the Accounts
Receivable and Invoices, other than that it mostly works.

I did this work on my own and hold all the property rights to this code.  I
do not have the time, nor the inclination, to finish this project so I am
going to give it to anyone that would like it in the hope that someone will
be motivated to compete it.  Initially I am willing to help people get
acquainted with the code.

I know nothing about accounting really.  I created the EJB components by
mechanically translating SQL-Ledger's PERL code to Java, so I'm sure there
are bugs :-).

Anyway, send me your e-mail address, or the address of somewhere where I can
park this code, and I will send it to you.

Regards,
ted stockwell

Dude:

Sure I'll take a tar-ball. I'll be busy for the next 3 weeks on a
project.

I have been following the SQL-ledger effort for some time, and had told
myself
that inter-operability with JAVA would be a good thing. Don't get me
wrong, I like
perl coding quite a lot, but JAVA brings the ability for all sorts of 
extra functionality.

I'm not an accountant either, but, lack of knowledge is the only reason
I accept
coding projects. Hell if I know quite a bit about something, then, I
usually
do not want to code on it(I'm basically a middle aged
grouchy-fuck.........)

ER what are your intentions/desires with the 80% intellectual property
of a PD port............? (basically I do not care, but, I'm curious to
see
what you value it at)

Hi,

I think it would be really nice if you can start a new project on
SourceForge and check it in there. This will also allow people with the
right expertise to contribute to making it 100 % complete.

Hi all!

Totally agree. This is a good practice. If there is a desire to send all
the stuff it will be more relieble to put it on SourceForge.
