Dan,
If there was a single email that could discredit all the efforts of those
who've worked tirelessly to make this a business application... Dan you just
wrote it. If you guys cannot take yourself seriously, you cannot expect
anyone else to.
That's too bad.
Regards,
Brian

You say that as a bad thing.
When jengo and I started phpGW and laid out the entire infastructure we
did it completely as a hobby.
Many of the initial development team worked on phpGW as a hobby, since
none of us were being paid for any phpGW work, and to this day very few
people involved make any money dev'ing it. In fact alot of the time
"users" simply get in the way of the fun.
Of course many involved are in fact focused on the user base, and
making money working on phpGW, and the project benefits from this group
as well. But dont go getting all pissy about the ***FREE*** help you are
offered, and try and insinuate that phpGW is only a hobby without you.
Because if thats the case, SO WHAT?
Its nice that the world can benefit from what we started as a "hobby".
Dan
