          <rev contentformat="text/x-wiki" contentmodel="wikitext" xml:space="preserve">Thought this needed its own section for elaboration:
Here is the section in the [[ManPageW_WindowTabField]] (Scroll down to ''tab'') 

Described there as:

Logic to determine if field is read only (applies only when field is read-write)

*Q: What field? ... The tab is linked to an entire table.  Seems to grey out areas of the toolbar when the logic is true but the record can still be saved.

format := {expression} [{logic} {expression}]

expression := @{context}@{operand}{value} or @{context}@{operand}{value}

logic := {|}|{&amp;}

context := any global or window context

value := strings or numbers

logic operators := AND or OR with the previous result from left to right

operand := eq{=}, gt{&gt;}, le{&lt;}, not{~^!}

*Examples:
**@AD_Table_ID@=14 | @Language@!GERGER
**@PriceLimit@&gt;10 | @PriceList@&gt;@PriceActual@
**@Name@&gt;J
**Strings may be in single quotes (optional)

Oon]].  It was also the site where the idea of ADempiere was first proposed to the community.  On September 1st 2006 in the [http://red1.org/adempiere forums] of Red1.org the idea of a [http://www.red1.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=931 fork] was brought to the compiere community because many people in the community felt like the compiere project was becoming less open and free.  Over the next week the proposal was discussed and the result was the start of the ADempiere project.

What is relevent from red1.org for ADempiere are the Compiere tutorials and forums' knowledge base from the community.

(The forums which was locked due to spam in October 2006 is reopened in March 2011. after a successful upgrade to phpBB3).

[[User:Red1|Red1]] also crystalise the Open Source philosophy with a 3-line principle of:
  [[Information Is Free]]
  [[People Are Not]]
  [[Contributors Are Priceless]]
