Agreed 100%

We've been using Ofbiz, in production, for more years than I can now
accurately remember.  It gets better and better.  We don't interact that
much although we do try and stay up to date.  We're VERY happy with the,
very considerable, help we've recieved from David, Andy, Si and others.
We hope one day to contribute back more regularly.  We've had our problems
as a business but they are seldom to do with the technology.

Very best wishes to all.

Ian
