Interesting. Would this possibly be a worthwhile project? I mean the FOSS development of a good POS package, not upgrading SoftPro?
Sorry, guess I've been doing product development too long, my first instinct is to generalize the problem and invent a solution for the entire class. Is there a need for that here, or does a sufficient foundation (FOSS packages or apps) exist with the unmet requirement being just to adapt it to the specific user's needs? Does anyone know of any existing FOSS apps that would answer this sort of need? Or does this remain to be developed? -Bruce McCulley Mark Komarinski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: [...snip...] > >Maddog's presentation last month and his mention of SoftPro removed some >cobwebs in my head. > >When I was last at the SoftPro in Waltham (last fall maybe?)
