Hi Joel,

Good move towards making OCA a more attractive / vivid place for contributors, but there is still way to go:

Biggest constraint so far for casual contribution has been that there is no shared history, when I use a OCA module as a library.

Therefore the following situation:

- I copy the OCA module
- I fix it in my working tree
- I go for a swim instead of replicating the fix and contributing upstream, because the whole setup is just too cumbersome.

I've proposed that issue (and a possible solution based on git subrepo) some time ago, but it seems it didn't trickle down to the "need to do something about" plane.

As a sidenote, the whole pypi packaging seems just a strategically wrong solution to the adoption problem, as it aparts histories even more.

Getting back to git based workflows would serve everyone's needs besides beeing simpler and more inclusive.

Best Regards,

David A.
