Thanks for your answer. Here is what is currently working in the module:

- Created a new Rent Order object (different from the Sale Order)
- In the header, you can choose the duration, which is global to all the 
rent order.
- Rent prices are defined in products, using the 'Minimal rent unity'. 
For example, if you rent things by days, months, or year, prices are 
defined in days.
- You can choose the invoice interval: Only once invoice, Daily, 
Monthly, etc, as you want (you can extend this in code easily).
- When the rent order is confirmed, you generate invoices accordingly : 
if you rent products for 3 months, with a monthly invoicing, 3 invocies 
are generated.
- You can add product which are invoiced only once, for example, 
'Configuration of the rented products', which will be invoiced once in 
the first invoice. These products must be of type 'Service'.

What I plan to add, from what everybody answered to this mail (and on irc) :

- On order confirmation, create 2 stock picking: One for Stock->Client 
and an other for Client->Stock (with a effective date at the end of the 
order). To do this, I will add a field 'Renting Location' in the partner 
view, to let the user create a per-partner location if he wants. This 
way, it's possible to excactly know which products is at the customer place.

Does that look ok?
