The developer eco-system is very important. The lack of payroll didn't eventuate out of a fear of offending the developer community tho. Xero started in NZ without payroll. It was only after expanding to Australia that there was enough demand for payroll. At some stage payroll will be available in all regions.

I'm glad you have faith. Lots of features in the pipeline.



Indeed, I signed onto Xero when payroll didn't exist. Payroll is as hard, if not harder than doing payment gateways in different countries - everything's different for each country. But the first incarnation of (Australian) payroll left much to be desired - and I assume that's the payroll that everyone's currently stuck with - so I was elated to hear that you'd bought out Paycycle and were integrating it directly into Xero.

We're going to be integrating internally with Xero in the next couple of months, so hopefully the API call limit doesn't become a pain.

Otherwise, keep up the good work.
