For non committers, like ourselves. You must create your own svn repository, with a vendor branch to the ofbiz repository.
Then create your own branch of the raw trunk, to do your own local changes. Package up these changes into patches, and post them back to the ofbiz project.... they may or may not be accepted. But at least you can use your "private" modified version of ofbiz and it won't hold you up. Marc Morin Emforium Group Inc.
