Hello, My main concern is that for the 7.0 OCB branch, we try to only merge changes which have a chance of getting merged in the official branch. This means "no db layout changes" in there. Ideally I would like to make sure that the fixes which are pushed in the 6.1 branch are also made available in the 7.0 branch (or at least a fix for the same bug is made available in that branch too, if it applies). So this also means "no db layout changes".
If we are to merge in OCB-6.1 changes which affect the db layout, this gets closer to a fork than to a maintainance branch (I have nothing against forks, I just like things to be properly labelled). If we are to accept changes which affect db layout, we need a clear policy about what changes are acceptable, and how to label them. At the very least, updating the version number of the addon should be required, a tag in the commit message and a migration script (if required) should be part of the MP.
