je me permet de réagir quant à cette suggestion pour souligner que PHPcatalog
est un produit dont la licence ne semble pas être en accord avec les libertés
fondamentales du logiciel libre . Je peux cependant me tromper, voici donc un
extrait de cette licence que l'on peut consulter sur le site de sylicon.sys pour
vous faire un avis.

each installed instance of the program, a separate license is required.

    2. All customers must submit the URL where they are using (or plan to use)
each license. The URL can be submitted via the PHPCatalog+ purchase form or

Bien sûr je fais cette remarque parce que Dolibarr (et là j'ai peu de doute) a
vocation d'être libre.

Librement
