Hello,
I'm founding a lot of bugs with fix released but not being
merged in the main branch. This is leading us and I suppose
the rest of companies to have our own branch with those merges
applied.
But, I suppose with OpenERP SA totally focused in v7, maybe we
all could join efforts and make this a community task. What do
you think?
I suppose the first step would be to have an initial list with
those pending merges / bugs that we would like to have fixed.
I can start a Google Doc if this is of your interest.
Hi Carlos,
as we all know, the current bug policy of OpenERP SA has the following
results:
- Bugs fixed by the community are not applied to the stable version
- Bugs fixed by OpenERP developers through OPW are not merged with the
stable version or after a very long delay
Therefore, the stable version of OpenERP is not usable without merging
at least those fixes that affect you.
As you have observed on twitter, Therp maintains their own branch of
OpenERP 6.1 that contains additional fixes that are contributed on
Launchpad. Many of those fixes we have conrtibuted ourselves and we
expect them to be in OpenERP 7.0. Because we use a distinct
'therp-backports' project we can use the Launchpad bug tracker to track
the separate statuses of the bugs in the official OpenERP branches and
our own.
Many other implementators maintain their own branches but they do not
use Launchpad to manage the issues. Perhaps it would be better to join
forces and participate in a shared community project to backport fixes
to stable versions of OpenERP. Therp for one would be happy to join such
an initiative. The usual flow of issues -> branches -> merge requests
should be sufficient to maintain quality control as long as the parties
involved indeed take the trouble of reviewing each others' proposals.
So yes, please create a Google Doc and we will comment on that.
Cheers,
Stefan.
