BTW, do not make the mistake of dismissing OpenERP as a small player in a market dominated by giants like SAP. OpenERP is asymmetric competition for those giants! The company's goal is to shrink the market, by taking away more of revenue from competitors for every dollar the company earns.
As Josh Kopelman of First Round Capital says, "We love investing in technologies and business models that are able to shrink existing markets. If your company can take $5 of revenue from a competitor for every $1 you earn – let's talk!"[1]
Congratulations to Fabien Pinckaers and the rest of the OpenERP team!
