Jacques,

I must say that I don't like this action.

I have re-read the discussion you had with Scott about this subject and also briefly read the discussions in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5312 (huge!).

There were strong objections against this change. I must say the discussion in OFBIZ-5312 was not done very well on both sides in OFBIZ-5312. There were only standpoints and few attempts to really explain the functionality (existing vs. new) and lacks a documentation of what is changed and why. I also had the expression that there were several developers trying to stitch together artifacts from other projects, see mainly Oct. 2013.

Despite Scott's objections against the use of ecomseo as the default ecommerce app and also no other voices to second your proposal, you changed the default. I cannot see why you asked for opinions and then act against the only opinion you get after a while?

After some months, I simply forgot Scott's answer a got ahead, human error.


There was no reason to force this. Nothing was broken and there were also no voices who strongly wanted the change in the last months, if I recall correctly. The only thing you achieve might be confusing users who experience an ecommerce demo with different behaviour regarding URLs.

Did you try it? I believe users would prefer ecomseo against 
ecommerce/control/main, etc.


I second Scott's approach to take the time to thoroughly analyze the different URL generation/"SEO" approaches in both implementations and merge them in a best-of-breed solution. That requires hard work in understanding everything and might take a while.

I also can agree on this


Additionally, we should first have a catalogue of substantiated requirements 
and match them against these implementations.

Looking forward for help from the community


You mentioned that there was work done with the consultation of a SEO expert. It would be great if he could give input about the requirements on which the ecomseo implementation was done.

I'll ask him


I propose to revert this change and start over with the above mentioned steps 
first before anything is changed again.

Done for R16.11, I kept the trunk since I just added it and it's a good way to 
compare with stable

Best regards,

Michael

BTW, trunk demo has no official link, should we not add one (not official?) 
somewhere in the site or the wiki?

So does it need battle testing or does it work well?
It works well for me.
Have you deployed it to any production instances?
Not directly, that's why I want it as default OFBiz demo
Has anyone else?
At least
https://www.buchhandel.de/
https://oem.ofbizci.net/oci-2
I guess you can find more starting from  OFBIZ-5312

Hi,

Maybe you don't know about or did not try it, but we have ecomseo a clone
of the ecommerce component tailored for SEO

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Search+
Engine+Optimisation,+SEO+in+ecommerce

I propose to use it as the default ecommerce demo. This mostly to somehow
battle test it, even if I know it works well.

As it's based on ecommerce, users should not experience a big changes,
apart the changed URLs

What do you think?

Jacques
