It'd be much easier for everyone if you maintain 2 sets of branches :
- a community-maintained branch complying with the bugfix-only policy, that OpenERP can merge into the core - the "OCB" branches with the new fields (after all the B means backport!), based on the bugfix-branch.


Hi Lionel,

thank you for your input. This alternative approach is very valid too, of course. While in the past I would have said that maintaining two separate branches would take too much resources from the maintainers, we would need to have some sort of distinction anyway if we want to facilitate easy feedback into the official series.

With regards to the 'B' in OCB: backporting bugs and to a lesser extent also features does not preclude the introduction of schema changes IMHO.

Cheers,
Stefan.
