I have a feeling that the R15.x branch will not be backward compatible due to all of the refactoring going on.

People will complain that the package rename will break local modifications - but so will a bunch of other things that are going on.

-1, but not permanently.

If we start renaming things, then it'll become hard to port changes back
and forth between release branches and trunk.  We need to reduce the
number of outstanding branches first, before this can even be started.

divide up the task and do it  and test it quickly.
divide up by application, code/XML, seed data, documentation, testing
and what ever makes sense to get the change done in a few hours.

Ron,

Notwithstanding the appropriateness of the elements in your response,
everything done in the OFBiz project IS a community project
(endeavour for
a better word).

Thank you for reiterating the invite for more collaboration. I
wholeheartedly agree and support.

Best regards,

Definitely a good idea.
Should it be done as a community project over a short period of time?
It would seem to be easier to do as a sort of global "search and
replace"
followed by testing rather than modifying a piece and looking for
all of
the references to that code and changing them and testing and then
picking
the next piece.

Adding a JIRA sounds like the best start.

Hi all,

In this posting http://ofbiz.markmail.org/message/mjlm5dvimcjngr6k
Adrian
proposed to rename our OFBiz artefacts from "org.ofbiz" to
"org.apache.ofbiz" to bring it more inline to conventions used by
other
Apache projects/products.

Does this proposal need any further discussion? Or can we move
forward by
creating a JIRA and work from there?

Best regards,


Pierre Smits
