Hi all, in order to provide you some background information about the release process, I am sharing with you some information that I have just posted to the dev list in response to the vote thread:
"the release process that the OFBiz community is following is based on a feature freeze phase, that for the 13.07 branch started more than one year ago, during which only bug fixes are backported. This is done in order to stabilize the branch before an official release is done. Since the "projectmgr" component has never been part of the 13.07 branch then it may be unsafe to include it now just before the release is issued. It would be better to discuss its inclusion in the upcoming new release branch where it could be stabilized and bug fixed."
