Here in italy, we are facing the same problem.

OpenERP SA is certifing and merging in v6 a specific italian
localization addon which includes only a chart of account and some vat
reports.

This addon is developed and maintained by a single company (a silver
partner...).
The one (localization addon) developed by the community tries to fit
many laws and rules, so it is more complex than a chart of account.

OpenERP refuses to merge the community work because it cannot be easily
tested and certified without specific knowledge (on italian accouting).

If OpenERP doesn't understand that customers need more than a chart of
account, they will always prefer cheaper accounting management softwares
instead of a complete ERP, just because the ERP cannot fit the local
law.
