Re: How can functional people "really" participate in OCA?

I think we can start by setting a forum and use the wiki at https://en.odoodoc.org

From there, we can evaluate in a year if it's a success by looking at the number of members/posts and contributors/pages.

If it works for the few of us, others will pick it up and join.

Greame, do you have a software forum in mind?

For those interested in the wiki, what do you think of the current structure? If you want to make changes, I can set you up as an administrator. I am happy to share the ball here.

Cheers,

I don't like Wiki pages as you propose, as we will duplicate data and have inconsistencies between both sources. There must be only one source. What we can do is to create a Wiki page for teaching how to propose a modification in README.rst files of the modules / README.md of the repository for newbie people that is not used to GitHub, and add massively in all the README files this link (we have tools for this) in a special section. Something like:

"""
Is this README not accurated or are there missing things you have detected? Please visit xxx to learn how you can propose changes in it.
"""

I know there's still the barrier of RST formatting, but usual redaction doesn't require it (and we can teach about usual formatting things like bold or italic - GitHub also includes some buttons for them in the top bar).

Regards.

  • How can functional people "really" participate in OCA?
    Dear community,

    I have a pretty hard question :)

    We always say that functional people  is vital to ERP system, for sure in the project. But are functional people have places in OCA?

    Are there forum or any place where functional can fully contribute their business knowledge without friction of tech, github and programmer languages?

    Any pure functional people in OCA can help answer this? :)
    Thanks!

    Note: This question is passed here by my functional peer who want to participate in OCA. But I also don't have that good suggestion too.
