First, we are an open community and try to cultivate a multi-vendor economy
around our software.    As far as customizations and integrations go, you
will find us fairly supportive.

One thing I would recommend is that you sit down with one of us at some
point (one of these weekends I would be glad to do it) and go over the
history and structure of the codebase.  The reason why this may be helpful
is that we are still moving components (and large components) from the old
SQL-Ledger codebase to something much cleaner.  Half an hour or an hour
over IRC would be good, but it would be good to set up a time in advance.
There are some notes in the manual I think about this but we probably need
to revisit them at some point and they are probably not sufficient.  I just
suggest it because it may save you quite a bit of time wondering why things
are the way they are (and in some cases there are no good reasons other
than that we haven't rewritten that portion yet).

Best wishes,
Chris Travers
