Hi, a quick summary of long discussions today.

The Indian team has

- 18 local modules
- some functionality considered general related to data locking, orgunit
type groupsets and embedded changelog info.
- some functionality considered special for India related to filtering of
datasets used for linelisting and a indicator scroll-bar

Code release is urgent. Code must be finished at 10th, tested and released
at 20th. India codes must somehow be integrated with the global release as
they need bug-fixes, GIS, and the Struts upgrade.

We agreed the ideal solution would be to (1) work on trunk by

- maintaining local indian modules in the /local/in folder
- implementing general requirements in trunk
- implementing special requirements in trunk through user/system settings,
making them optional for other users

The next best solution would be to (2) create an Indian branch on launchpad
from global version 2.0.3-SNAPSHOT by:

- implementing special requirements directly in the branch
- Lars will implement the general requirements in trunk which Indian team
will merge into the branch.

We chose (2) because of the time pressure. This is anyway a great step
towards integration and better than the current situation where the Indian
code resides in a local SVN repository. Still, we decided to sit down and do
(1) later this fall when we have more time available and can sit together.
