Dave, thanks for the plug - and thanks to everyone who's expressed an
interest in OpenRPT so far. It seems there are still some performance issues
with pgFoundry (pending setup of new servers?) - so for now, we're going to do
our best not to contribute to the load, and point people to OpenRPT's home on
SourceForge, where the iron is big and the pipes fat:

We're very interested in engaging with the PostgreSQL community to help make
OpenRPT better. For those who aren't familiar with us, the OpenRPT project has
spun out of an ERP application called OpenMFG. I'm the CEO of OpenMFG LLC, the
company; I was previously one of the founders of Great Bridge, a
first-generation Postgres company that was a casualty of the dot-com boom/bust
cycle four years ago. I formed OpenMFG to bring a Postgres-based ERP system to
market (www.openmfg.com) ... and along the way, part of what we built with our
ERP was a multiplatform report writer.
The OpenMFG ERP Suite is inexpensive but not free; source code provided and patches accepted, but not
OSI-certified "open source." We decided that the report writer level of the "stack" was
different, however, and decided to release OpenRPT under the GPL for anyone and everyone who wants to abide
by the terms of the GPL. For those who would like to "opt out" of the GPL, we also offer a
commercial license. For more on the licensing, as well as downloads, CVS, screenshots, docs, project info,
etc., please check out the project homepage at http://openrpt.sf.net.
Thanks very much,
Ned
