Base on https://code.google.com/p/tryton/wiki/Assets I think it should be more integrated with account_asset. So for me, asset should be linked to a product of type asset (not necesseray depreciable) and the account_asset should link to this asset instead of product. I will reuse the same terms for Dict stuffs as in product_attribute and move it to a module asset_attribute The icon stuff should be in a separate module and even perhaps for custom module. name and code seem redondant notes should be replaced by https://code.google.com/p/tryton/wiki/StickyNote The linkage with stock_lot doesn't seem to me as a real benefit. But it could be a simple informational link if both modules are installed. -- Cédric Krier - B2CK SPRL Email/Jabber: cedric.kr...@b2ck.com Tel: +32 472 54 46 59 Website: http://www.b2ck.com/
