Re: Crowdfunding campaign for manufacturing modules

 

Hi, Raphael,

Very interesting the backports and the method you have used. We will look
every new feature (I only make for now an oversight) of WMS trunk to
possible backports, but as you have said, there are some areas that simply
cannot be backported. If we get enough funds - I don't want to repeat
myself too much, but we are doing this without any other customer support -
we will point definitely to use all the v8 potential (without forgetting
v7, as I said previously).

Regards.
