I have come very close to getting time tracking sorted out with eGroupWare projects combined with its timesheet function. But, as far as books go, I haven't found a Linux replacement for quickbooks. There are some good project making headway, but I haven't had time to check/test anything in the past year. Hopefully, we can give quickbooks the boot in the next year or so. Anybody got a favorite open-source accounting package that would be good to test? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
