Re: [Openerp-community-reviewer] OCA LP Project migration to Github

 

Hi all,

@Joel : thanks a lot for your mail.

The d) solution (of Stefan) is maybe the most interesting.
There is currently no V8 serie for community modules in Launchpad (or not a
lot ?) so realize the migration for the V8 only will avoid to move manually
MP from LP to Github, to loose reviews or comments, etc.
It gives time to the community to choose module & submodule architecture
and to discover this new tools. (I personnaly don't know Git / Github
features very well)

Regards.
