Hi Mike;

Thanks for your hard work! This is not a big important question, but; one I
ponder sometimes. I've been guided by this community to never change the
base or community modules that are not my own, but; instead to create a new
module that inherits from (for example the point_of_sale module) then
revises the inherited module. I hear that minimizes upgrade hassles in the
future.

I wonder if you had considered this alternative and if so, how did you come
to your decision to change the point_of_sale module?

I look forward to hearing from you,
DaleEMoore@xxxxxxxxx
