	Can someone clarify all of this SQL backend talk?  From the
standpoint of a home user, I'm perfectly happy with my common file
backend and I may well stop using gnucash if it migrates to an SQL
only backend.  Setting up an SQL server just to balance my checkbook
fails the hassle/benefit analysis for me.

	If you're just talking about having backend modules, then
than's another matter.  I just don't recall seeing any mention of
other backend types.

	Sorry if this is covered on the website.  The only things I
could find weren't very specific and didn't have a date on them.

	Other than this, though, I want to thank you all for GC.  It
really is a pleasure to use.

PS - As a home user, I'd prefer see book closing sooner to later.
Hell, I even tried to do it once, but got overwhelmed.  I'm closing in
on over two full years of transactions and all of that leftover junk
is starting to get to me.
