Compiere doesn't even list fyracle as an option on it's databases: http://www.compiere.com/products/compare-editions/index.php
Various associated websites seem to have been ignored since 2010. I didn't want to say anything bad, since I don't know anything, but it's not looking good. It's seems everything negative I've ever said about continuing support in FOSS is sadly true. In a nutshell: if masses jump on the bandwagon, good times for all, otherwise, fuhgedaboudit. Then in a few years, all you have is an empty broken down old wagon.
