Opensource ERP

I have not blogged in a while but since my last blog a few trhings have changed for the better. I was saying that enough already Ithink that it is time for ERP to go mainstream through one of the many ERPs going under a foundation. Well guess what ofbiz is in the Apache incubator. Its in the process of becoming an Apache project! This is great.

Comiere should really commit to getting their backend off Oracle otherwise I will pan them each time. It makes no sense running on an opensource stack and then having to run around to get an Oracle license. Compiere seems a little less than interested in moving off Oracle their reason is they do not see a lot of demand for this.  Compiere move off the requirement of needing a proprietary database and let the customer choose to use Oracle or a database of their choosing.
