Dear community,

I know many are eager to change vcs but please give everyone time to 
insert this in their already too small timetables.
Probably we at Numerigraphe will stick to Launchpad for as long as we 
can because use bzr all the way though to production servers. We can't 
afford to switch now.
If you do migrate v7 to github, pleaseset up "upstream branches" on 
launchpad, this way LP will pull the new commits itself.

Regarding v8, I don't understand how it's better to have a myriad of 
small unconnected repositories instead of one cleanly organized tree.
If we instead merged all OCA projects into one branch like Odoo did, it 
would be easier for new contributers.
I for one spent hours searching for which project had which module in 
Launchpad.
OCA must eventually become a large code-base (linux-size large would not 
surprise me): does it help if we spread it all over the place?

Some claim each OCA project has it's own very small community: but 
wasn't OCA about uniting?
And it won't be extra-addons again - that was a savage dump, and OCA is 
cleanly organized.
Git wizards say it's easy to rebase the subtrees' staged unpulled remote 
into the master out-of-index sub-ether-spacial workflow, but for the 
rest of us, I beg you to make it simple.

Lionel Sausin.
