Hi Andrei, hi Guewen, 

its not to say, that there is no interest anymore, no. I would be
really appreciate if you start out a migration of the module for the
relation between a new Odoo and an relatively new Prestashop, but just
as Guewen says, if you for instance take Magento.. There are myriads of
companies still sticking with V1 of Magento as the migration to V2
would bascially mean a 6-digit project and they have not seldomly
invested such an amount over the years already. Now the dicontinuance
of security patches is a threat, but as pretty many use community
anyway that would be rather theoretical and there are service out there
that fix this. So just as Guewen says they are 

1.) Delaying the projects 
2.) Considering swichting to what i would call post classical e-
commerce stack

I don't no Prestashop that well but i thing there is a decent many of
people using it. So the ones that are having customers that both use
Odoo and Prestashop together are the ones you are your "community". I
am afraid but it probably works like this. Push the first code and than
ask for reviewers. I am pretty sure this will work out. Don't be
frustrated. Be the first mover..... At least it will lower your
maintaince cost for the piece of code. Hope that helps

Best Frederik
