==== Description: ====
Bo-Keep helps you keep your books so you don't get lost

Bo-Keep allows you to create custom data entry interfaces for accounting
software, speeding up data entry and reducing errors.

The system uses front-end plugins for data entry interfaces, and back-end
plugins to connect with various accounting programs.

==== Other Comments: ====
If I understand correctly, in order to distribute Bo-Keep (GNU GPL v3 or at
your option any later) with GnuCash, one must upgrade all of the files that
say 
 * version 2 and any later version
or
 * allow an upgrade to version 3 specifically.

It will have to be verified that there are no version 2 only files.

We're prepared to make a patch to GnuCash that does this for the convenience
of anyone wishing to distribute GnuCash and BoKeep together. We don't expect
such a patch to be accepted upstream (they've probably already consider it),
but perhaps they'll commit it to a branch.
