--- Comment #41 from Thomas Baumgart <tbaumg...@kde.org> ---
Thanks to all who were chasing the code of Portfolio-Performance. I took a look
and not surprisingly, it does the same as ours, just differently.
On the pros side I only see the capability to update changes in a centralized
fashion but that relies on a code change that only selected people (developers)
can do and requires an update of the whole program after a change. So the
burden to provide a working version is on the developers.
The way KMyMoney tackles the data extraction functionality is more flexible and
allows the users to make necessary modifications themselves without
intervention of any developer when the data provider changes their URL or page
format by simply posting the updated value to a forum and/or mailing list.
This is a problem without a 100% solution and we will be bitten again in the
future when the data provider decides to make changes for whatever reason.
Since the whole topic as a known issue without a solution I will close it here
for good and classify it as a downstream problem.
