Hi Ben,
this is Ismael Ciordia, responsible for "Openbravo platform". I will be more
than happy to discuss with you any improvement/enhancement in Openbravo
platform design and if we reach an agreement -for sure we will- to coordinate
with you how to implement those changes in core. Not only that, our daily work
and documentation (functional spec. / technical design / test plan) is
publically available and we are fully open for feedback. If your requirements
are aligned with our current priorities we will allocate resources to make it
happen.
I am sure that other area responsibles will react in the same way, but take
into account that August is a holiday month so they may reply with some delay.
Please be patient.
If your request is in the platform area I propose you to contact me (ismael dot
ciordia at openbravo dot com) to schedule an IRC or Skype chat to start the
discussion.
Best,
Ismael

Asunto: [Openbravo-development] Process for design changes/improvements?
Hi,
What is the process for proposing & discussing changes to the current design
of Openbravo Core?
i.e. Not adding new functionality or enhancing existing functions, but just
changing the underlying
implementation (and possibly design).
I can do the same process as a bug fix or enhancement and file an issue, then
implement & commit
the changes. However I'd really like to be able to discuss the proposed
changes before implementing
them. Just because I think a certain approach is better doesn't mean that it
actually is. I may be unaware
of constraints/requirements that lead to the original design/implementation.
What I'd really like to be able to do is put forward a proposal and then have
a review/discussion with
the person(s) responsible for that area of code. Assuming they are happy
with the proposal I can
then implement the changes.
Awaiting your thoughts
cheers
