The key for any amount of work is to collaborate with the community as much as possible, if something is large then just break it down and discuss each change piece by piece. An approach such as this substantially reduces the risk that any work done will be wasted and generally improves the overall design.

Hi Adrian,For a change that may be substantial, could this approach be quite riskythat a lot of time could be spent developing something that may not be accepted? Many thanks, Chris Adrian Crum wrote:That is not how the open source community works. If anyone wants to seethis move along, they need to make the desired changes to their local copy, create a patch, and submit it to Jira.As far as coordination is concerned, there is an "umbrella" Jira issuefor this already. Just make new Jira issues sub-tasks of it. -Adrian Michael Xu (xudong) wrote:hi,Like Bruno mentioned, this topic has been discussed over many times. Anditis time to take some actions.

I don'tthink the diagram is consistent with codes. For example, from the diagram party doesn't depend on marketing;however,as I mentioned in previous email, party entity definition does use ContactListParty from marketing. -- Regards, Michael Xu (xudong)www.wizitsoft.com | Office: (8610) 6267 0615 ext 806 | Mobile: (86)135 0135 9807 | Fax: (8610) 62670096 On Tue, Nov 24, 2009 at 9:16 PM, Michael Xu (xudong) <[email protected]>wrote:Just found an article about the dependency:http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBADMIN/Component+and+Component+Set+Dependencies<http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBADMIN/Component+and+Component+Set+DependenciesFromthe component relationship diagram, it seems I have to include all components under framework and application in my new application.

Basically, I want touse the nice overall architect of ofbiz, theme mechanism and Party/Permission/SecurityGroup. However, I found it is very difficult to remove unnecessary components. For example, entitymodel.xml from applications/partyuses ContactListParty, which is from marketing component. I thinksuchdependency doesn't make much sense, as marketing is only an optionalcomponent but party is a must.What's the best practice for my case? Advices and clues will be veryappreciated.
