Review: Abstain

For sure you will kill me with my comment but well I am goint to say (and you can be counter me may be).

Why not improve the message instead simply hide it.

- Formally I understand the main point "My implementations are "Supported by me"".
- But formally, It can help us to say our customers "Men, buy an enterprise licence can give some advantage, this and this and this....".

May be the module shoud change the direction of the link may be to the OCA site explaining the benefits of "support" the tool that you are using now, not simply Hide the message at once.

In our case, I have customers without Enterprise too, and I only said "Click on the X at the right and it will be hidden", if you want it hidden correctly you can "try" understand the benefits of support the OpenSource ecosystem and the editor, because everybody should win and the service offer from openerp is not a heresy, (which I being partner will be benefited by itself) and the ecosystem is health enought.

IMHO as community the first version of this module is "right" "Don't phone to home" but this one IMHO should not be supported by us as Official community it is politically incorrect, everybody should know who is behind the opensource tool is using, and the code itself is only verifying a number that don't have any risk in any implementation.

I don't want start a fight I just want to be able to put a middle point here, is more dangerous stop the marketing that openerp is doing, that simply say to our customers "This is the correct way".

I made a presentation about this at Community days 2012.
