Hi Adam,
I'm not talking about how to do it but to answer the question : is the
community want to do it ?
Is the community want to maintain only a framework and not an ERP ?
Split the project in several part.
Maven could be a solution, but before choosing a solution, we must be
sure that it is a common decision.
Then we can define action plan on how to do it and go ahead :)
No more endless talk. That's the status quo. It's a dead end. That's
how things have been going, and Jacopo's own graphs have shown ofbiz in
decline(namely, the number of commits to the project). It may not have
been apparent, but when I saw that slide, my heart sank. It was obvious
to me, that something had to change. The downturn in the graph was long,
it wasn't something recent. It appeared that no one in the community
was doing anything towards solving that problem. What I took away from
that is a whole new way needed to be applied. Sorry if that ruffles
feathers, but that's how I feal.
I'm creating actual code, in isolated branches, in the public, where
everyone can see, with incremental, small changes(not one huge patch,
which is the jira way). I'm not working in isolation. Please join the
effort.
What I am doing is actually good, I'm giving of my time to ofbiz. I had
been doing nothing for so long, so even if what I have started isn't
used, I'll keep giving more time, and doing other things. Maven(and/or
gradle, still haven't decided that) is just the start of ideas I've been
sitting on.
ps: In the graph I mention, there are 2 large spike, outside of the
average. The first was because of Jacques, the second was me. I
cross-references the graphs from github for the same timeframe.
