I will write something in the wiki, as I suggested in my last email of the recent
"Release policy" thread

Jacques,
You seem to forget that I have expressed my viewpoint on the subject of
what goes into release branches and subsequent releases at various
occasions. So have others.
We seem to avoid the opportunity to combine efforts to come up with a new
strategy that would help the project in this area.
Best regards,
Pierre Smits

Adrian,
You said
If there are no strong objections, I will do the backport in a few days.
But you didn't even care to reply to my suggestion. Nobody did and I find
this very disappointing. Nobody care about what get backported to releases?
Why are you so eager to backport these changes? I know there were some
issues you fixed, but it was working like that for years and there was no
hurry.
Moreover, you have already fixed few bugs you introduced with the
refactoring. So chances are they are some others waiting...
Yesterday evening, I though about it and I must say was a bit upset. At a
point that I thought about vetoing this backport. Finally I will not
because I'm sure you will do diligence to fix the bug once reported.
But I feel very alone today

Hi Adrian,
Sorry but I'm against this, or rather I have another suggestion to do. I
will make it brief.
We decided to create a R14.12 freezed branch. Since then you worked on
the screen widget refactor, I committed the SEO webapp in ecommerce:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/
Search+Engine+Optimisation%2C+SEO+in+ecommerce and I'd like to also
backport it to the R14 branch. I guess others would want to backport their
own work, etc.
My suggestion is to rename R14.12 to R15.02 and to tag it again and
freeze it before the end of Feburary. Nothing forces us to have a release
by year, R15.02 is fine!

My volunteer time will be extremely limited starting next week, so I
have put the remaining widget refactoring work on the shelf.
I accomplished most of what I set out to do, but I wasn't able to do any
work on widget XML validation.
My hope is that this effort provides a springboard for others to
innovate in this area of the project.
I would like to backport the screen widget refactor to the R14 branch.
The refactor fixed innumerable bugs and flaws in the previous code. If
there are no strong objections, I will do the backport in a few days.
Thank you everyone for your patience while I worked on the problems
caused by the refactor.
