Wow, congratulations then, because you did a great job with the making and
submission of the patch! It usually takes a few tries for new contributors to
get the first merge proposal right (branch creation, target branch selection, etc.)

Do not hesitate to ask questions on the community mailing-list.

Ouch, I'm sure that quite doable, but we might be a bit lacking in terms of
tools and documentation for Windows users because most of our developers and
contributors are using the various Unix flavors. It would be great to be more
friendly to Windows users though, so do not hesitate to make suggestions.

The documentation on doc.openerp.com is unfortunately not always up-to-date
when it comes to tools and recent developments. The procedure and guidelines
for making merge proposals are up-to-date however :-)
The 6.1 release notes have only been announced on our community channels
recently (Launchpad mailing-lists, News blog on openerp.com), so it is natural
that you might not know about them.

Welcome aboard! :-)
