Dear community,
we'd like to dig into OFBiz' subscription handling. We already started to check 
all of the available resources on the web and it feels like the subscription 
handling is more or less in a proof of concept state with a few open endings.
One simple example that bothers me: When a subscription is ordered the 
changeOrderStatus-SECA triggers the processExtendSubscription-service. This 
service automatically sets the thruDate of a subscription to the current date. 
If I understand this correctly this is done because the service implicitly 
assumes that the subscription should be extended which isn't correct in most of 
the cases I can think of. I'd rather keep the thruDate open until the 
subscription expires - either because of the useTime or the useCount exceeds 
the defined limits of this subscription (e.g. valid 1 year from start, valid 
for 10 usage hours, valid for 5 usage counts). A clear from/thruDate-relation 
which we are familiar within OFBiz also seems to be more consistent to me from 
a data model point of view.
Before digging into that and implementing the relevant services or checks I just wanted 
to discuss if those "open endings" were left open on purpose to increase the 
flexibility of possible use cases or if simply someone stopped working on it.   Thanks so 
far.
