GnuCash

BTW the majority of slashdot comments sucks badly. Urgh. Not nice.

This comment is interesting, because this was precisely the reason for 
me to implement HBCI for German online banking. Since this is now 
implemented since the beginning of this year, Gnucash "has quite enough 
functionality to be useful for" the particular group of German online 
banking users! In that respect I tried to do exactly this in this 
specific area.

The outcome is, well, not *really* impressive. We made it into SuSE's 
press announcements of their latest distributions, and the gnucash-de 
mailing list has some activity but not too much. It is not really 
measurable whether focussing here on a particular user group gave enough 
benefit to try this for other particular needs as well.
