Contributions flow back from the community?

Sure. If you're a VAR you sign a contract saying the OpenMFG folks own any enhancements you make to "their" software.

All I can say is icky-poo.

Next to torturing puppies and killing babies, I'd say this is the next most likely thing that we can all agree on.

Thank goodness!

I just never thought I'd be thankful for a hate-fest...

Icky-poo is not usually a part of my vocabulary dino. I guess I'm just not an 'icky-poo' kind of guy :D.

Still... 'dog in the manger' is hardly high praise.

Steve -

PITI - People for the Indulgent Treatment of Insects take a very dim view of torturing poor innocent little baby flies. Better to throw fly paper on an SUV driver and burn it.

Where do I sign to get these "open pockets" into which everyone tosses goodies? I need some new toys, er, tools for my garage.
