All - To keep everyone informed, in May we voted to add some formality to significant efforts at Fineract, and added this to our Wiki as documentation.
When there is a major change or a major contribution, we aim to use a DISCUSS, VOTE, TRACK process. Please see: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FINERACT/Fineract+Significant+Improvement+Proposals https://lists.apache.org/thread/1gvm4x4vk6py2qkp0ch78p2m87thvo9f We have effectively adopted 4 SIPs in the last six weeks, as a bit of a backlog had developed. Each of these are "in progress" and thus will either be tracked until conclusion, or be closed for lack of activity. SIP 1 - Modular Security Arch SIP 2 - Scarf data tracking SIP 3 - New Progressive loan framework SIP 4 - Cucumber test framework To be clear, any contributor to the community is welcome to propose a SIP, and each SIP will be documented on the email listserv. All contributors are welcome to weigh in, and PMC members formally vote to approve or reject as per our normal practices. SIPs are somewhat subjective, but are intended to put the Community on notice of a major change, to create a consensus around a significant change to the code base, or to propose a new approach to the project that needs more engagement by a wider set of users and contributors. Everything should lead to tickets in Jira and more discussion on the listserv. Thanks, James PMC Chair
