Re: openerp 7 nightly build backward compat

 

Hi,

Thanks will have a look at the openerp-tools repo.

Why would 7.0 stable branch introduce incompatibilities? It doesn't
make sense. Most open source projects tag/branch a release and then only
bug fixes get back ported into that, while features go into trunk, to
become 7.0.1 a few weeks later, or whatever. Why do openerp do it this
way?

Debs is what all open source projects use for production (on debian
and friends), again, why do openerp recommend version control? Debs are
meant to make sys admin for upgrades etc easier. We're using the debs,
and they work well, how has bzr saved your life in a way that the
nightly debs couldn't?
