I use John Wiegley's Ledger (of Remember fame), which is a CLI tool that does reporting against plain text files. I do my expense reporting and business accounting in it. Very flexible and because it is text based, I can use version control and emacs.

I use a web based system called Freshbooks, and I'd recommend them. Ledger comes with few output formats, it is really just a reporting tool. I built some perl scripts that create expense reports in Latex from ledger output combined with scanned receipt images, but not invoicing.

Tangling does not require *any* language specific support. Since the integration of Babel into Org-mode any type of code block should tangle just fine.

The tangling works like a charm. What's even better is that ability to specify the tangle property as an org property which only affects code blocks within a certain heading!

I wouldn't feel obligated to add all of the functionality listed in the template. Many of our language files (e.g. dot, sass, etc...) are very simple.

Well, it's stable enough in that I wrote it more than 6 months ago and it hasn't changed in that time other than to update to the new babel layout. I don't intend to do anything on it immediately in any case as it works for my use case! In other words, I'd be happy if it were included in org-mode at your discretion.

Okay. I'm taking some time off work, and will be striving to stay away from computers while doing so, so I will try to do something on this next month. I've already got a start on such a document.
