Hello Again
Dolibarr 4.0.2 just delivered that we speak about freeze (one
more time the 5.0 …)
So keep calm and just count
2 month for beta version (November, December) 2 other for the
release candidate (Janurary, feburary) and we finaly delivery a
5.0 in march … WE don’t respect the roadmap
SO what will be in this new version ?
-The suppression of jquery datatables plugin, used by myList and
some other additional modules…, just because they made some
problems with dolidroid …
It's fine to have a roadmap in planning terms (which are not
required since the schedule speaks of January and July so it was
March and September)
But it would be more important to have a schedule on
functionality is added or is removed ...
Bien cordialement,
Charlie Benke

It's depends of the final user
let's says for a company (who use dolibarr) and make less than
100K per month and don't have a lot of externals modules, 2
update per year is easy
for a big company 1 update per year is enough and with dolibarr
isn't a problem to stay in 3.8 and to migrate in 4.0 and squeeze
the 3.9 (for example)
my 2 cents

I don't understand. You say "If the major release issued
every 6 months was free of bug, stable and did not require
another install/update after barely one month to correct the
most glaring bugs that will not be dramatic"
Every experimented developper know that this argument is the
best argument to ask to have more release than 2 per year.
And you ask less. So why using an argue to ask more
release: The more is the delay between 2 versions, the more
is the bug rate on production (that's why more and more
project are increasing the release frequency) and difficulty
to have a stable version is an exponential of the number of
feature added or modified. So your argue is just
incomprehensible.
I used on production each version, as soon as it is release
and announced and I have no problem. Also the stability of a
version depends on bugs fixes during the beta period and
number of unit tests added when added new future. Developers
must work on this direction instead of an "against
productive" idea.

OK
If I follow your argumentation … I will deliver a brand
new version of all my modules each week, because I have
decide to planned like this
Even if the version is not enough tested, even the
previous release have some know bug, even if the document
are not upgraded …
And I will explain to my disgruntled customers that this
is a good method to make a better quality and simplify
their upgrade ...
Release a version every 6 months because FOR YOU is more
simple is not acceptable. I do not develop modules
dolibarr because it is easy but because it allows users
to better manage their company, create growth, the
emploies ...
If the major release issued every 6 months was free of
bug, stable and did not require another install/update
after barely one month to correct the most glaring bugs
that will not be dramatic
The minimum straightforwardness that we can have with
users downloading a new major release is to explain that
this version DO NOT BE USED IN PRODUCTION.

Dolibarr 4.0.1
Your argue is not coherent.
You say you want less version so you have to test your
module less often. It also meas your customer upgrade
version less often.
So why just don't you make your tests every 2 versions.
Result will be same. You will work only every 1 year
instead of every 6 month, and your customer would be able
to upgrade only every 1 year (once your module is
validated for the version) instead of every 6 month.
It's just your choice and the choice of your customer.
Having a release every 1 year, means nor integrator, nor
users have choice. Also it means a lower quality and
exponentiel work to make upgrade.
But if you prefer to upgrade your module once per year,
just do it. You can, it's just a choice you must do. It
is not because there is a new version, that you must
upgrade your module. If you prefer to follow a 1 year
release, just follow this rythm and ask you customer to
follow also this rythm. The only difference is that the
ryhtm is defined by you instead of being imposed be a
dolibarr low release rythm.
And i think it is better to let integrator to decide
their release/upgrade frequency then having this
decied/forced by Dolibarr.

Actually I maintain 22 modules, some are simple, some
are complex. To test all of them correctly (use all
feature, modify doc, …) each time a new major version
of Dolibarr is release is more than 2 full weeks long
for Romain an me...
During the month a new version comes out, sales of
modules on dolistore are halved cut (according to my
information it is not related to my modules only).
I could do as some others … , just change the version
number and wait for my clients put bugs me but I do
not find it honest
Most integrators with whom I work no longer wish to
upgrade versions as there are no major advances
between two versions either-called major
The final version of each major costs money and
energy to NOTHING: just to show that development
teams are able to release two versions per year, two
versions full of vacuum .
We have all been waiting for new accountancy module
for 2 years. The time spent to release a new version
will have better been employed to work on this
strategic module…

Dolibarr 4.0.1
Hi
Thanks to Camille for pointing the main problem :
Module and ratio time spend / bug / patch
As integrator of Dolibarr, it's not "sustainable" for
me to test every six month Dolibarr and the modules
I'm commonly using. Today I only install 3.9. Maybe
next year, I will uprade to 5.0 or not... depending
of what functions will be added or remaining
experimental.
Modules are too often broken by new version. On the
Dolistore you can see module labeled 3.x-4.0 who are
in fact broken with the last version or doesn't exist
for the current version of Dolibarr. I think it's not
good for the reputation of Dolibarr.
I'll be pleased to discuss about this subject in
Valence :-)

Hi
Thanks for sharing this.
I agree, Dolibarr migration is pretty nice !
but only core part, modules looks more
problematic to update.
Regarding communication, this is a work in
progress.
Yes I saw this :) But looks again difficult. But
it's better :)
From now on, we'll have systematic
annoucement when a major version is released,
minor version too, why not. A communication
group has been started within the fundation
with the goal to better communicate with the
community. We already are present on social
medias, but this dev mailing-list and the
dolistore customers are 2 audiences we poorly
communicate with (not to say not at all).
I don't understand logic, dolibarr
users/community are on forum, mailinglist but
piority is social network, strange
About your concerns around PRs and plugins,
I'm sorry you feel that way. PRs are usually
correctly integrated and not lost.
Maybe now, I'll try again. But I'm not sure. My
fear is to lost again energy to nothing.
Plugins are the responsibility of their
developers. Personnaly, our plugins are
upgraded with the new releases
I'm not module developper then I don't know if is
complicate or not to follow release and provide.
As user, i prefer to have my own script and don't
use module. In my use case ratio time spend / bug
/ patch is too heavy.
Thanks a lot
km
