I just thought that a lot of gnucash widgets were grid-like and gnumeric is all about flexible grids. Obviously there will be some instances like the phrase-wheel (like I know what that means) that must be home-brewed, but I would have thought (and this is a non-developer thinking) that there is an awful lot that you could pull from elsewhere; thus alleviating many man-months in creating them from scratch and also sharing future responsibility (and conserving resources) rather than looking after it all under GnuCash. -- - Charlie The future of the net - www.xwt.org Charles Goodwin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Member of the XWT Foundation _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gnucash.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
