to my mind extra-addons suffers a major issue which just worsens with each version. That is you never know if it has been ported to work on the current version.
What I would like to see is a community maintained extra-addons branch structure - completely seperate from openobject-addons that looks something like this. extra-addons 5.0 community-certified untested extra-addons 6.0 community-certified untested extra-addons 6.1 community-certified untested extra-addons 6.2 community-certified untested then with each release only the community-certified addons of the previous release are ported to the untested branch of the next release. Then as they are certified (merge proposal - drivers and committers or new group community-certifiers) they are removed from untested and merged in to community-certified. This will over time remove a lot of crap that no-one uses, serve as a notice to users that they should not use untested branch, and notice to developers that while they can certainly work on the modules that it requires testing to be done, and even more so if it is in the untested of a prior release. And then bug reports can be filed on the seperate project, managed by community for community-certified with no expectations, and a fix it yourself for untested. It will also give OpenERP a better idea of candidates for inclusion into Official certified addons. -- https://code.launchpad.net/~openerp-community/openerp/skitzotek_trunk_symlinks/+merge/93115 Your team OpenERP Community is subscribed to branch lp:~openerp-community/openerp/skitzotek_trunk_symlinks. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openerp-community Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openerp-community More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
