Cheers David, let me know if you have any trouble setting it up.

I hear you, and I can't imagine this is a top priority... but if you've
ever operated a sole proprietorship involved in selling tangible objects
rather than intangible services, you will not need me to explain the
critical importance of cash flow analysis.  It's really a business use vs.
personal use distinction, not a big business vs. small business distinction.

Anyway thanks for the software guys, it's a pretty impressive piece of work
and I've started using it.  Hopefully it's not too irritating having folks
coming around reporting that "the product failed after I loaded it with 10x
the weight it's rated for!"

Cheers,
cs

P.S.  I thought I heard about plans to implement payroll functionality in
Gnucash.  Is that still a thing?  I'd be happy to help if I could.
