I would welcome that.

Hi,

I normally attend FOSDEM whenever I can (which has been almost every 
year for quite some time now).

I plan to go this year as well, though there are a few external factors 
that may block me last minute. I'll only now right before the weekend.

I'll not be able to do a presentation at FOSDEM, that I'm sure about.

Regards,

Geert

Hello all,

I had a discussion on IRC with John Ralls about this old gnucash-devel@ 
list thread:
   * 
https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-devel/2011-January/030704.ht

Unsurprisingly this patch fails to apply anymore, but to me it is a 
worthwhile feature and I want
to pursue it. I don't speak scheme well, but I can pick it up. John 
suggested I post something to
the list about this old feature request and try to get some input, 
especially from Mike Alexander,

on if and how this feature can be worked in.


Looking at a diff between the current

advanced-portfolio.scm
   and
http://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-devel/attachments/20110110/935
f42b3/attachment-0003.bin

the IRR bits seem fairly self contained.

The thing I wonder about is if an IRR wouldn't immediately result in 
person A wanting it to be tweaked this way, B arguing it should be done 
slightly differently and C wanting something else included or excluded.


Also, does IRR as an into-the-future calculation or tool for deciding 
between prospective investments fit in with the rest of gnc's 
functionality generally?


In short, isn't this the kind of thing spreadsheets will always do way 
better than we could ever do?
