So you may take on manufacturing, and hope to be endorsed by OpenERP itself, and hope not to be overtaken by a fork of the project. Then you would need funding, like OpenERP itself, or the endorsement and time of an independent group like a University - that may already be seen to be expert in the area that interests you.
If you don't get the endorsement of OpenERP you might choose a specific version of OpenERP - or you might keep to 'the latest version' whichever that might be. If you're running the Manufacturing (say) group you could set your own policy about documentation. And if you were to be overtaken by other groups you could choose to take their code into yours (if the licence enables that) or to give up or to redirect to another project entirely - that's Open Source for you !
