Insightful, thought provoking and challenging. Really has got me fired up I can't wait for WSS3 - it should answer my prayers and finally allow me to put all the pieces of an enterprise class system 'for nuts' using our FOSS ERP system and Palo as the warehouse. Roll on July/September! Martyn Oh and thanks for the hat tip! Great summary Tom.
