There has been some discussion about what Dollars and $ense 5.0 will be like.
The folowing is a part of a note that I received from Ron Polacek recently:

I have been told that 5.0 has been developed using a different database and
that the main database problems of 4.1c have been resolved. I can only surmise
that this is referring to the conditions whereby the "dirty database" message
gets generated necessitating a rebuild balances.

He was going to try and find some notes that he had on the 5.0 development that
he promised to send me (if he can find them) and if successful, I will post the
information when I get it.

Apparently, a lot of problems that He says he has had to deal with were
concerning differences between the documentation and the actual product (ie.
4.1c). He indicated that he hopes a lot of this to be resolved as well.

So far, it seems that the biggest difference is going to be a much better
database and fixed problems. Of course, there may be significant new features
but I have not heard anything on them yet.

Anyway, I will post anything that I get that appears to be of general interest.
