Adrian,
Just few questions from your earlier emails in developer mailing list:
>My preference would be to create a branch and start building things out

>current code.
If ofbiz is so much scalable and up to date with technology, why do you want
start
rebasing such a stable and well proven software to something which is yet to be
developed
and that too from scratch.
By the way, if you make this branch and start building OFBIZ on top of Moqui, I
will be much happy.
Same was suggested by Piere Smits on dev mailing list and Al will also be happy
with it.
>If there is support for this effort, then I can begin working on it in
>February. If not, then I will most likely start a separate project -
>similar to the approach taken by Moqui.
If you are so much impressed by Moqui's approach, then why don't you want to
join hands with
David and address all those issue which you think are copied from ofbiz. There
are so many
people out there who think Moqui is the right choice.
>Moqui copies problems from our existing framework, I want to fix them.
David might not have done this intentionally, but no one will stop you fixing
those in Moqui instead of
starting a new framework from scratch.
>Therefore, I have to come to the same conclusion David did: Innovation
>is impossible in this community, so it needs to be done somewhere else.
You argue that innovation is impossible in this community but still oppose the
fact that ofbiz is a sinking ship.
It would be a great loss for the community if you too follow the David's
approach
of leaving this community. If this happens, ofbiz will surely be a sinking ship.
