Guys/Gals,
That should be Guys !
Hold onto your guns. It may not be long before tally hits the roads on gnu/linux. They have always had a gnu/linux version but refrained from going to the market with it due to hazaar issues between them and a so called gnu/linux vendor.
No it was't.
Things have changed and market forces tell me this time around with a lot of gnu/linux vendors in the fray Tally is all gung-ho and will be out on the streets soon with a gnu/linux version.

Let us hope so. However, even if tally comes out with Linux oh sorry Linux/gnu version I am sure it wound not be open source. I think without wasting further time we should start working on good, open source accounting package with all the bells and whistle of Tally. Data migration from Tally should be part of that package. As Devdas has already mentioned one of the program avasp is already available. I will concentrate my effort on that.
I wonder why Indian magazine like Linux For you have not published article on such a promising piece of software. I wish they published how to code in avsap and carry out usability study of it.
One of the reason why Tally enjoy such a wide spread dominance is because extremely easy to use interface and comfortable menu navigation without having to such mouse. I hardly see accounting person using mouse.
