So I've been looking into Payroll recently and outsourcing looks to cost on an order of $700/year, with companies that make you sign agreements with statements like "IE 6 is required" (that they admit are bullshit, but are too bureaucratic/uninterested to get changed). So if there does become a fund for the feature in ledgersmb my company would be happy to pledge/donate something on par with outsourcing costs over a few years. Until there is one, perhaps just a notification list interested people could sign up for (eg ledger-smb-feature-payroll-announce) would be in order? -- \|/ Daniel JB Clark | Activist; Owner FREEDOM -+-> INCLUDED ~ http://freedomincluded.com /|\ Free Software respecting hardware ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Palm PDK Hot Apps Program offers developers who use the Plug-In Development Kit to bring their C/C++ apps to Palm for a share of $1 Million in cash or HP Products.
