Taher Alkhateeb commented on OFBIZ-5267:
----------------------------------------

Thank you for your explanation Jacques. Things are a bit clearer now and I list 
my comments below:

# I agree for the other issues discussed earlier we should create another JIRA 
calling it something like BIRT enhancements. Do you need to do some prep work 
before creating this new issue, or do you want me to create one?
# The idea of the patch above I find it quite counter-intuitive. You went 
through all that great effort to remove BIRT from the framework and into 
specialpurpose, and yet you still want to keep references from core 
applications to specialpurpose? i.e. order -> birt or accounting -> birt? if 
anything, I think you should replace such reports with FOP or simply remove 
them completely from the system!

I'm not sure what is the best solution, but perhaps something like keeping BIRT 
disabled as a whole component by default and just creating a build job that 
enables it (through patching) for testing purposes whenever a commit happens in 
trunk. This way we can think of BIRT sort of as an ON/OFF switch, either we 
want it and let it override everywhere, or we don't want it and it is disabled 
completely along with its data, widgets, and reports.

I'm not very familiar with your strategy or philosophy on this matter, or 
whether I missed something important that compel us to do this reference in the 
opposite direction. Please excuse me if I'm making comments while not entirely 
aware of all the details.
