Dear all,


Some informations about the last (suggested) changes after your feedback, hopes, and fears ;)

Project title:
--------------
I renamed the project title with " OpenERP * " prefix so we can identify them more easily when assigning bugs (this was suggested by some of you). The branches and LP project name are still unchanged.


Bug tracker:
---------------
I don't took the time to activate all bug tracker on every project right know. Anyone from the "OpenERP community reviewer" team can do it easily if needed. For others, I suggest to email us in case you need it.


Review and Merge proposal (6.1 and 7.0 series):
--------------------------------------------------------------
As we committed our own Camptocamp's module in the new community project without review, and to be fair with everyone, I suggest the following about the reviews.
On the 6.1 serie of all new community projects, we make more softened review of the modules. This will smoothly bring everybody to a better quality level while still accepting the today's existing and acceptable modules. 

This means, community modules on version 6.1 will accept module that are not "perfect", but on the other hand will incite the developer to push the quality a step further on every MP. This is mostly due to the fact that we don't have defined quality standard right now and we need to start building our community ecosystem anyway.

But... For future serie 7.0, I'll suggest that we really take care of which module we accept on every community project, and with which quality standard. This means, we WON'T BRANCH the 6.1 serie to starts the 7.0 one. We'll rather extract all modules from it, and built a MP to an empty 7.0 branch. Each MP on serie 7.0 will be reviewed more deeply as we will know we'll gonna maintain it over years together.

I think this is a fair approach that will both allow existing module with a fair quality to be part of the "adventure" while ensuring strong basis for the future !

Review documentation:
------------------------------

I'll point here the LP documentation about reviewing merge and also added it to the official doc.openerp.com : https://help.launchpad.net/Code/Review

I also read this : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/CodeReviews and find it very interesting as a starts to build our own rules. Anybody wanting to write a first draft of our own from this ?

GTK client:
--------------

Apparently no majority will to make a community branch of the GTK client. I let the interested people organize their-self together to starts a common project on LP. 


New/Future project:
-------------------------

New project landed:

- Medical in OpenERP : https://launchpad.net/medical-openerp
- Hotel Management System on OpenERP : https://launchpad.net/hotel-management-system

Future suggestions:

- GIS for OpenERP
- Community Web addons for OpenERP

Though ?




Thank you all, have a nice week-end,

Cheers,


Joël
