Hm, to be a little bit more precise PIH is syncing in Haiti, Rwanda, and Malawi.
In Malawi we are on 1.7.2 and I don't see us upgrading soon. However, we live with this logging 'feature' since about a year, so I don't see the need to just branch for this. I guess the problem will arise if sync requires 1.8 and there are additional features/bugfixes that we need. I'm willing to deal with this once we have this situation. Off-topic: Our usage of 'short living' child servers might help us as well. We don't rely on sync and the interceptors that much as we frequently re-initialize the child servers and can still do data manipulation/correction on the DB level (more similar to the RemoteFormEntry approach). This way our dependency to sync isn't that high and we only depend on it for the way back from the child to the parent server for patient data (like Encounter, Obs, Identifiers, ...). Metadata and other configurational parts are not supposed to be sync'ed. christian On Sep 29, 2011, at 4:04 PM, Mark Goodrich wrote: I’m fine if we don’t backport… as Mike said, we are planning on upgrading soon, and I’m not particularly annoyed by them.

However, there is a "feature" that the SyncService.shouldSynchronize method logs something every time something is saved. This can be fixed if the module is set to require OpenMRS 1.8. Unfortunately this would mean branching the sync module and backporting any features to a second codebase every time. I want to avoid this for as long as possible. How many sync users are out there on pre 1.8 ? (I know PIH in Rwanda is, but they are upgrading to 1.8 very soon) Or how many sync users see that extra logging as annoying enough that we should start the branching?
