If people are going to continue to say that "one app to perform a
function" in Core is a goal, then gnucash ought to stay.  Gnucash is the
only package in Core that is a full-featured financial app.  There are
two things that can be done to help rectify the gnucash situation:
sample grisbi and other financial apps to see if any of them are capable
of taking gnucash's place or take a look at what needs to be done to
finish porting gnucash to Gtk2 and help out::
