Well the accounting package doesnt exist. The framework is solid and
some package specifications exist but not the packages. A few
exceptions are we have adopted existing projects and are converting them
to the GNUe Framework.

DCL - Project Management / Help Desk
NOLA - Accounting (plus more)

are two such instances of this.

We are not all for pretty widgets and fluff. It makes life easier when
one of the goals is to run anywhere (including cell phones,
telephone(bayonne client), curses, etc) I dont think that means hard to
use however.

Certainly the goal is to go from smallest segment to largest, with the
target being somewhere in the middle.
