http://ci.apache.org/waterfall?show=ofbiz-trunk will give you the last sucessful build from the trunk. then you can create your mods and additions but doing an ant create-component that puts them in the hotdeploy. this way you can update trunk and not effect your code. then if you created test units in your components you can verify if your code still works.
now if you don't what to go to all of that, then plan on using a release which does not change except for bugs. you would then have to watch the commit ml for updates and see if you ca n use them. my 2 cents. ========================= BJ Freeman http://bjfreeman.elance.com Strategic Power Office with Supplier Automation <http://www.businessesnetwork.com/automation/viewforum.php?f=93> Specialtymarket.com <http://www.specialtymarket.com/> Systems Integrator-- Glad to Assist Chat Y! messenger: bjfr33man Linkedin <http://www.linkedin.com/profile?viewProfile=&key=1237480&locale=en_US&trk=tab_pro> Olivier Tremblay sent the following on 4/26/2010 10:31 AM: > Hi people! > > I'd need some guidance towards which version of OFBiz to choose from.
