Yeah ... I'm wondering if the poster who said that he sent in a donation a
year ago and can't get his e-mail returned is honest.   I mean, jeez, if
Compiere development is being funded by re-selling Oracle licences, then
can't the project leads just be honest and say so?  And if they are really
interested in a port, why the total lack of progress over a year?

Also, the bugbear of "database independance" is an issue to tackle one day ...
