Greetings community members.
I have been asked by a volunteer group from a non-profit organization to
identify freeware accounting solutions that provide book keeping abilities
and allow for building a custom functionality on top of them. Each
solution is to be evaluated against the same set of criteria. Below is the
list that I compiled for GNU Cash. Please review and correct me where I am
wrong (please point me to the URL that describes functionality that I
though is absent from the tool). Thank you - we appreciate your help!
