thomasboimahYesterday, I helped svaye upload her University of the People Unofficial Transcript to the NWD-01 server, making it accessible for download through both a web browser and the terminal using the wget command. I also took some time to refresh my Python skills by building a math quiz game.12:30
thomasboimahThis morning, I received an email from Ms. Scholl with some positive feedback, saying, “The website is quite good, Thomas,” and she requested a few minor changes, which she clearly outlined in the email. I’ll be working on those changes today so that by Monday, we can proceed with purchasing her domain and officially handing over her website. No blockers.12:30

Today I got a message from jason confirming a meeting with me on Wednesday next week to talk about some changes they want done on the site. Today I will reach out to zonny, do a business walkthrough with shallon, do some research on FOSS for accounting, and figure out workflow for s12:34

jelknerbut i wanted to summarize my investigation and let cjones_ know what i found12:36
jelkneri'm ready to recommend the following approach:12:37
jelkner1. cjones_ tries to get gnucash connected to a remote postgresql server12:38
jelknerif it works, we go with that solution12:38
jelknerover the weekend jelkner will investigate ERPNext further, in case we need to use it as a plan B.12:39
cjones_ok. and what about using ssh tunnels to connect to the psql server?12:39
mulbahERPNext is cool12:39
jelknerwhatever you recommend, my dear friend12:39
mulbahI can help with the setup if you which12:39
jelknerif it works, we can use it12:39
cjones_got it.  i'll investigate today and report back12:40
mulbahit was build with Frappe 12:40
jelknerthe test will be if you can outline a solution that we can all use12:40
jelknermulbah, i get a really good vibe from Frappe12:40
jelknerthere are over 600 active contributors to the main repo12:40
