Re: Proposal to improve communication and make more efficient the inclusion of new branches.
IMHO, the emergency for OCB branches is to fix bugs that have been
introduced in these branches.
I am not sure if it's tracking the right branches, but it looks like the
OCB branches are red on runbot:
http://runbot.openerp.com/ocb.html
Also, I would suggest every contribution to follow the runbot naming
convention so that feature branches are also tested. This simplifies the
merge proposal review a lot because you can:
- test functionalities online
- check that the branch is still green
The rule we use for official modules is to never merge a branch that
breaks automated tests.
