Hello everyone.
After an interruption, the newsletter is back. Once again, we want to regularly report on the community news and on what the OCA Board is working on. You will notice that the newsletter format has changed. It is now more compact and straightforward. I hope you like it.
You are welcome to mail us to suggest an article. If it gets published, you will get credit on the newsletter. You can also reach us for any comments or suggestions.
Finally, I would also like to give a word of appreciation to our Platinum sponsors, Onestein B.V and Aleph Objects, and our Silver sponsor, Allmas IT.

RFQ to migrate Odoo-community.org from v8 to v10
The OCA decided to upgrade its Odoo instance to version 10. Funding the needed OpenUpgarde scripts seems like a good use of the OCA resources. So a request for quotations was issued, for the development of the OpenUpgrade migration scripts.
See the related mailing list thread at odoo-community.org.
