Off topic for this thread - I'd love to hear what were the things you liked 
about KMyMoney 
and what you found missing. Can I ask you to share your experience in another 
e-mail thread 
on gnucash-user ?

It would IMO be very valuable feedback for gnucash to learn about it's 
strengths and 
weaknesses.

Feel free to mention I asked about this if you start such a topic.

Thanks,

Geert
