Hello Wolfgang, thank you for stepping by and giving us some of your inputs.

Yes you did. But the google index is grown bigger in the last years and as you may know its results are usually a kind of personalized. So the resulting list is a little too big (17.300 from Germany) to get a quick overview. As you can see my top results for "overlapping foreign keys" are: [#HHH-6221] Hibernate throws AnnotationException on column ... https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HHH-6221 15.05.2011 – Hibernate throws AnnotationException on column used by multiple overlapping foreign keys.

In a first view of any of this documents I can not find any useful and confiding information about composite primary keys are a must-have for Tryton framework ... Do you really think it is viable, asking every single person on a mailing list, investing some time for searching the internet to understand what you wanted to say? >You're really not too embarrassed to exhibit that kind of attitude? Which kind of attitude do you read from the one sentence? If I understand Cédric correctly, he just wanted to tell (another time), it is solely upon _you_ to bring all the needed information, if you wanted to change or introduce something into Tryton. And I strongly agree and support this attitude. Try to understand, it is important for us as a community of volunteers to save time in developing, planing and project work. We are _not_ able to handle all "good ideas" just thrown at our feeds. We try to base our decisions upon reasoning and not hearsay. We except your collaboration. Many people, projects and companies depending on the good quality of Tryton, please try to understand we needed to be picky when discussing new ideas, because we have a lot of them. A successful strategy to present your ideas about "composite primary keys" as a new concept for Tryton could be delivering the following information as a blueprint[1] as it is a big feature with many implications:: * a summary about the topic as a short introduction * the main reasons why the feature is needed * good practical use cases/examples * references to other documents, if needed >Do you really pretend to be a software developer? Or that you want to >sell software products or services? >Are you really not aware what kind of impression you give to any >potential customer (or module developer) who just happens to have a >clue by chance? <yawn> Touchée! This professional attitude will surely impress every potential customer. And yeees, it is really an outrage saying as a maintainer of a FLOSS application framework, '''Thank you for not giving any links that convinces me that it is a "must have"''' when the needed information is not given after several requests. Where would we be if everyone acted like this ... Low-blow earnings: 1 x <°)\\\< Trying harder -- getting better </yawn> Seriously, I would be very pleased when we all try to discuss this topic more professional and less personal/insulting.
