Speaking as a long time gnucash user and an active computer scientist, I'd like to point out that some of these bugs are in the toolkits and libraries that gnucash uses. Open source has always suffered from this idea: a toolkit that seemed awesome a while ago can experience extreme technical debt due to the rapid movement of the software industry. In some cases, said toolkit can actually become detrimental to projects that use it. This is why (unless you are actually a gnucash dev) trying to quantitatively measure the project's "goodness" is quite likely an exercise in subjective futility. :) Just my $0.02 USD. -- Dave Hayes - Computer and Internet Consultant - LA CA, USA >>>> *Opinions expressed above are entirely my own* <<<< There are a lot of people who cannot stand waiting.
