Hi Paul, hi Pedro,


Thanks a lot for taking this time together, I'm really happy with the outcomes, now everything is crystal clear ! Also, the community can be sure on the future and reliability of the proposed solution, congrats for that.

About the campaign in it-self, we have written a little page here that I suggest you read (if not already done) : https://odoo-community.org/page/crowdfunding

You'll find some basics about funding campaign, may be some useful infos. On my side, I can suggest to:

 * Improve a bit the description of the existing problems you solve with this devs (give examples of use cases may be ?)

 * Add the "For who ?" title and describe who are your targeted donators / who will benefit from this features (when reading it, I must say: Hey this is for me !)

 * Who will deliver the solution and why you're the best suited for it (this matter IMO, because people invest for who they trust) => Here you should mentioned the OdooMRP team and give names of all involved people

 * Add the OCA Logo and explain that it'll be delivered there (people trust the organization now and it'll give credit to it). It must be clear for everyone that it's gonna be integrated with OCA work IMO.


You can also count on the OCA to promote the campaign. For this, I suggest your write down a draft of a blog post that I'll review with the board and then post on the OCA website. Last one, may I  suggest that you become an OCA member for 2016 ;)

Again, I want to thank you for the Open Source way of doing things and you're will to contribute to OCA.

Best regards,


Joël

Thank you Paul and all the others for this promising outcome. This is
what I tried to help to initiate with my comments.

But now we have to join forces to make the campaign a success!

Best, trevi
