I too would like to know about this. Our company does business with 
non-profits and they all use QuickBooks. I would like to be able to offer 
them an *easy* FOSS alternative with LedgerSMB (Okay, it is not "easy" but it 
is an alternative.). Since QuickBooks is oriented to "GUI stupids" this might 
be an "impossible sell" in most cases since LedgerSMB is most definitely not 
catering to the "GUI stupids". But I would be interested to see if anyone has 
managed to get a non-profit to use LedgerSMB.
