Re: Seek more attention; Re: Better tools for community cohesion?



Hi,

We use LSMB because:

* Web based, easy for multi-user access with no conflicts
* Open Source
* LAMP technology stack, easy to get in and change as needed
* Ability to integrate with other business systems
* Core team that responds quickly to identified issues
* Stated goal of becoming the most GAAP-compliant bookkeeping system
* In production use for years

Cheers,
John Locke

An email I sent yesterday asking why companies decided to use LedgerSMB dovetails with this thread.  Getting the word out means identifying what motivates companies to use it and providing one or more tangible benefits (i.e., clear differentiator over competitors).  I'd like to ask people on this list to email this thread telling the main reason they went with LedgerSMB.  I'd like to collect responses (anonymously of course) to determine how best to promote LedgerSMB.

Thanks.
Brian

Hi Erik, Chris,,,

If the LSMB project wants to seek more attention, there might be some issues to consider:



3. Consider rebasing LSMB onto Perl Dancer
Perl Dancer is a modern Web Application Framework.
It's powerfull, it's hot.


If a change (which is chosen because of its 'cool' or 'hotness' factor) introduces extra work to affect the change - - its valueless (IMHO).

More people using the software means more people know about it means more developers. There are known issues with LSMB (the large number of challenges in its installation being one!) that make it less than straightforward for anyone to install and use. Make a great product and get the news out and people will come!
