I think we need to find a way to honor all of the significant contributors to OFBiz. The good initial discussions from ApacheCon need to be fleshed out further.
We can continue to very positively impact the look and feel of the system and we would prefer not to keep those innovations to ourselves. We must be sure that people understand that the new look and feel is our work. An improved OFBiz look and feel is a big competitive advantage and we want to get some value out of bringing it to the community. Your project management work is very much the same thing as are the many, many contributions of HotWax. We need to find a way to reward these major enhancements and protect their value for the donors. None of this is new to Apache, which has many major organizations and vendors making donations to it. Their conservative position with regard to credit is probably born of experience and I am curious about their advice. At the same time, there is some irony that the Apache license is primarily concerned with giving credit to the Apache Project when the code is used. ----- "Hans Bakker" wrote: > Hi David, > from a marketing point of view I agree but there are a lot of errors in > this schema to correct and that before tuesday?
