I am concerned about this move to be honest. In general, the idea to focus with apache ofbiz on its core and to cluster the other components into external "plugins" is an important step, however, I do not think that moving it all outside of ASF would help us by any means. In my opinion it is impo

Perhaps to clarify: The feature is most useful when used in combination with other Servlets or Filters that work next to ControlServlet. A common scenario could be an intercepting CMS that is supposed to handle page requests up front. If no page is found it is sometimes wanted to fallback to the of

I can only agree with Jacques on this one. To be honest, I didn't think about the reusability of categories in applications, which is why a tree structure doesn't make any sense - absolutely correct. I guess the only way of implementing anything of that sort would be by opening up a 1:n relational

Not to sound rude, but frankly I am already getting sick of all of these false accusations. All I wanted to know was whether or not anybody ever tried to switch search engines. I was in the understanding that for the product searches, OFBiz was using Lucene (and yes, I was fully aware that Solr i

Hi, I was curious whether it would be possible to replace the proprietary Lucene engine with solr ( http://apache.org/solr www.apache.org/solr ). The question I am asking is because that could increase the overall performance and also allow the fancy facetting. So in case it is possible (it sho
