creating an Open Source and Free Software accounting system usable by
 
non-technical bookkeepers, accountants, and non-profit managers.  You can

<p>We haven't started writing code yet, so now's a great time to get in on the ground floor!  Check the <a href="http://npoacct.sfconservancy.org/Reimbursements/Requirements/">Requirements document</a> we're putting together on the wiki.  <a href="http://lists.sfconservancy.org/mailman/listinfo/npo-accounting">Join us on the mailing list</a> to let us know what's missing, and hear first other ways you can contribute as we start building the system.</p>

equality, democracy, and sharing.</p>
