Hi all,

Allow me to implement what I need and it will be fixed in a flash - as:
1) ability to turn off notices from being displayed (using log level) to quicly 
swith from developer-mode to user-mode
2) configurable safetylevel on passwords
3) pdo for db-abstraction (faster and more secure)
4) keep the ability to do cloning of db-objects
5) keep the license at GPLv2  - " or (at your option) any later version."(to 
legally allow back-ported FelaMiMail from egroupware) - as web apps are not 
particularly subjected to "Tivoization"

We are bringing developer resources into the project (tomorrow I leave for Peru 
to visit our team of 3 developers which has just started) - we are soon to 
extend the system with a lease management module and we also want to look into 
how ged could fit into project management using interlink for relations and 
tracking. We are also looking into integration with mobile platforms (currently 
playing with the "Acer Aspire One" and "htc x7501")

Bottom line: if we could have some influence - we could contribute a lot to the 
project.

We are trying to build a community for professionals based on the Facilities 
Management angle - but we would really like this to extend the original 
community and be a part of the original project.

Regards

Sigurd
