OFBiz and how to move forward (was Re: How to use ProjectMgr in 13.07)

2014-11-10 Thread Pierre Smits
Hi All, In the thread suggestion have been made to move applications (as a fork/split off) away from the Apache OFBiz project to be maintained by other people. This is part of an ongoing discussion that started back in 2012 (if I recall correctly). Back then this didn't lead to consensus. Now it

Hi Ron, I really hope you are right on your vision for this. What you said makes sense and needs some testing to affirm it. Sign me up for the birt component as well as bootstrap for now if this goes forward! Taher Alkhateeb

Diminishing the project to something that Scott would like to result in (a project that only works on - in a debatable order of importance - frame work elements, base registers as party, order and product, and e-commerce) is, in my opinion, a path to the ASF attic. I completely disagree with

I may be beating a dead horse but what Jacopo is proposing and the concern that Jacques raised about resources would seem to fit very well into a sub-project structure. Split these modules out of the main line into their own OFBiz sub-projects where they could attract their own resources

I agree with a separate community approach, for these reasons: The special purpose components started out as little demonstrations of how OFBiz can be extended to role-specific applications. Since then, some of those components have expanded into full-featured applications - so the overhead

Hi All, I agree that hot-deploy component don't have to be installed with the core project by default. But in the other hand it could be interesting to be aware of those projects. When I read this topics, it seems matching with an extension manager... French community is working on this

I am fine with the idea of encouraging the growth of an ecosystem of *projects* about OFBiz (not necessarily all within the ASF) but I disagree that they should be *sub-projects* of OFBiz, mostly because sub-projects just add complexity within the OFBiz community (with more paperwork required).
