Alexis, your email is very difficult to be followed, especially with no text formatting nor inline links, but you are stating some lies directly: when you say that I merged the module on my own, that's absolutely false. Previously, after the meeting we had having Virginie as "mediator", both Enric and me makes 3 explicit propositions:

- Contact Odoo SA for knowing their plans expanding the usage of the 2 fields in res.partner. For now, in 18 and master, both fields are only used for pre-selecting a journal in the "Register payment" wizard, which is barely nothing.
- Do the surgery extraction of his improvements on the XML export code (and other possible direct improvements) over the current 18.0 branch.
- Delay the decision of adopting that 2 fields for the next version, depending on the answer in C1.

And you said that you have to think about it. After that, without giving an answer, you started the fork petition. That's when we started to merge the existing work.

It's very easy to say "I don't want a fork", but not resigning any of the things you want to get. The fact is that your conditions are: put my fork in 18, or nothing, let's go for the fork. That doesn't allow any margin to negotiation. And everything on this came from the fact that you deviated all your customers in 16 to your previous fork, and now you want to impose the whole OCA your agenda.

I'm still willing to converge the work in the terms we proposed in the meeting, even if it implies a lot of work on my side, apart from the already lost in all these attempts to get to an agreement. If not, I'm seriously thinking of abandoning OCA, and continuing on my own, focusing again on delivering high quality open Odoo modules, instead of losing a lot of time (and moreover, energy) in this, and in a asymmetric way, where I have to justify a lot of things against someone that is not giving the same to OCA as me and my organization. Another point to increase this feeling is the reply from Daniel, that states IMO the OCA board governance incompetence to handle these kinds of things, so I don't feel any advantage of doing things inside OCA, if at the end, I'm on my own on any trouble I find inside it. Neutrality doesn't serve here.

Regards.
