I follow that wave too, I'm in favor to maintain only OCX instead OCB!

One problem of the OCA is that there are too many projects so that the
activity is diluted and not a lot of those projects are functional
optimally anymore. OCB is just another example. It is definitely one of
the less relevant projects at the moment, and I think the resurrection
of an OCX would be a great opportunity to slash OCB.

A very practical element in this is the CI of the other projects. It
would be essential to have the OCA modules from other projects tested on
the OCX branch, like they are on both Odoo and OCB now. But do we really
want to wait for Travis testing against three versions of Odoo or trade
OCB for OCX?

Regards,
Stefan.
