Quoting: We are also prepared to be assertive regarding this situation. If the project does not move to GIT then Brainfood is willing to participate in a consortium of organizations that will peer with each other to share updates to the master branch for their local OFBiz repository. Such an arrangement will, effectively, result in a distributed master repository image.
Thanks Ean for the position of *Brainfood* in this position. It comes across as 'Do it our way, or else'. You are free to make such statements and when followed through there will be consequences. For all participating in this project. One I can see standing out clearly is: no more participation in/contribution from the employees of Brainfood and from the other companies in that consortium back into the project. If that is going to happen, I will say: 'I thank you for all the contributions you did to the project'. And I will check in my sentiments at the door. I do hope that if you do you also resign totally from this project. I rather have the community comes to its decision based on sound/valid arguments, not (veiled) threats.
