Hi everyone,

After reading about users frustration on the forums about modules being
incompatible after upgrades and having experienced this myself, I suggest
here what I think is part of the solution:
https://github.com/Dolibarr/dolibarr/issues/3738

*Dolibarr has a great modules ecosystem thanks to the Dolistore
<http://dolistore.com/> and fellow developers.*

*Unfortunately, most do not follow Dolibarr development closely and end up
being incompatible with recent releases creating various users and
integrators frustration.*



*To mitigate this, I suggest we add a mandatory explicit compatibility
declaration to modules.This way, we can assess if a module is compatible or
not and warn users during the upgrade process.We should also require the
publisher's contact informations so we can display an email address or a
web link for the user to contact the module developer to ask for
compatibility informations or upgrade support.*

*This is just a draft. Feel free to add your suggestions.*

This could also be leveraged on the Dolistore itself to display
compatibility informations in a more sensible way.

Looking forward to your thoughts on the matter.
