Hi Hans, I realized you've done opentravel system based Ofbiz i tried to download new Ofbiz version but it does't have Opentravel. Would you tell me whether this system is still an Open Source, if so is there a way i can get a copy? Please suggest. Thanks.

I stopped further developing it. The Hotel PMS is a well established and conservative market currently badly hit by the bad economy. I did several investigations and it will be very difficult to market your system as a commercial product. If you could make your product open source now you would have a much better chance to succeed, even more when you would include it into ofbiz as a special purpose component. Your company should specialize on the installation and service to local Hotels and help others with the implementation. If your extension is a special purpose component with ofbiz you would have support from the OFBiz community and your maintenance costs will be much lower. Further you will get support of ofbiz experts in the further development and you can guarantee your customers support from many companies. You still would have the most knowledge about the system and give expert advice. You could also consider implementing the opentravel standard as published on opentravel.org. As far as i know there is not yet an open source opentravel system. I would like to offer you help to include it into ofbiz and that your implementation agrees with the ofbiz standards. please reconsider the marketing of your product.
