+** About the GNUKhata
+
+GNUKhata is a free and open source software for accounting that
+supports a wide range of applications in every field of economic
+activity, including factory or farm-based production, point of sales
+accounting & inventory and work in the service sector.  While it
+serves such traditional accounting requirements, its special feature
+is that it can support emerging sectors of the economy who are being
+required to keep audited accounts, such as self-help groups, craft
+producers and micro-finance groups. GNUKhata is highly customisable,
+given its open source nature. It can be easily transformed into Indian
+languages, largely unreached by existing software solutions. GNUKhata
+is soon to be extended to include a payroll section. We hope to take
+it to a stage where it can become a tool for remote banking.
