Hello, This reminds my of my craints when i got to know that base_contact was removed from 6.2 branch. Anybody else concerned with the base_contact approach for 7.0?
On 24.08.12 I sent to the list the following Email text: > The location in 6.1 was a good approach as the address remained the > object so assign to all other modules. This was not the case in 6.0 > where many modules had to be adapted to cope with jobs instead of > address (and the address was used as location). > > We finalised the 6.1 approach with the missing features from 6.0 (see > https://code.launchpad.net/~openerp-community/openobject-addons > /trunk-> bug-923440-base_contact_finalise6.1) > and will soon migrate to 6.1 such that we can use all modules with the > address. > > I hope that a good solution in Version 7 will be prepared.
