Magento connector feedback and questions

 

Hi,

I've been playing a while with OpenERP 7.0 and Magento 1.8 CE, with the
connector installed.
I decided, as suggested to select Magento as the Catalog master. this
choice is fine, even for a multi-channel business. stick with Magento to
manage the catalog.
But I encountered a problem regarding customers.
If a customer already exists in OpenERP (because of a direct/phone sale), a
duplicate entry is created with an incoming SO from Magento.
And unfortunately, there is no merge option in 7.0. This can lead to a mess
in the customer database, on OpenERP side.

Googled a bit, found that a merge function has been developed. it is
published in saas-3 branch.

I installed this version, but unfortunately the connector is not working
anymore.

Questions :

Are you aware of the duplicates problem ?
Do you plan to release an updated version of connector before v8 (ie
saas-3) ?
