New branch is now available for upcoming releases of 10.04 series
The new release branch "10.04" is now available here:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ofbiz/branches/release10.04
Checkout instructions are, as usual, here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBADMIN/OFBiz+Source+Repository+and+Access
There is now a new version "Release Branch 10.04" in Jira that can be used to mark Jira tickets that contain patches (or bug reports) specifically addressed to this branch.
We will only accept bug fixes for this branch and we will issue official releases over time (tentatively every quarter).
To the whole community: please help to stabilize the branch with tests, bug reports and fixes; the quality of the upcoming releases in the 10.04 series will be determined by the activity and contribution of the community.
Kind regards,
Jacopo

Yeah it looks evident from the discussion that most of the people are
in favor of backporting unit tests (Thanks Everyone!)
and it is good to assume that one can backport a unit test from now
onwards, right?
I am sorry but I thought generally changes in policy are concluded
through voting.

I don't think anybody is going to be against adding tests and it shouldn't need to be discussed first.
BTW, we still need to ask Infra to get buildbot running the 10.04 tests if anyone wants to volunteer.

I don't think so, tests could be backported IMO. Maybe discussed for each case on dev ML before?

This looks like a good idea to me and I don't see why we should not allow to backport automated tests.

Maintaining patches is another big job. We've done that, it gets difficult over time.

Oh, sorry, I did not know the patch was already been committed (and thus
already present in 10.04).
So please forget me.

In fact, if anyone is willing to commit (for 10.04 and trunk), the patch
(productStoreFieldDescriptions2.patch
<https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12443367/productStoreFieldDescriptions2.patch>)
at https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-3747 provides description
labels for ProductStore.

Hi Scott,
That's because a default resource has been setup for the entity, but no
help text is found for that field. I thought it would be good to
display the key so that it may encourage people to submit patches
containing help text. Obviously, the current behavior is easily changed
if required.
Many thanks,
Chris

Re: New branch is now available for upcoming releases of 10.04 series
Posted by Christopher Snow <sn...@snowconsulting.co.uk>.
Hi BJ,
The patch for displaying the tooltip help was in a few days ago so
should be in 10.04. You can see it in action by going to the following
link:
https://demo-trunk.ofbiz.apache.org/example/control/EditExample?exampleId=10000
Hover over the field labels (e.g. Example Id, Type, etc) and you should
see an informative help message.
The patches we are talking about here are for providing the actual text
that gets displayed when you hover over a field label. Providing the
actual text is similar to adding translation messages in property files.
Cheers,
Chris

I can see your point on ones that are for the trunk.
but of a release it would seem since only bug fixes the patches should
work for the whole realse version.

Hi Bruno,

Chris,
what we coud do to with this feature is to maintain a patch for the 10.04 in
a specific JIRA.
This would allow everybody (including me) to apply the patch on 10.04
releases.

+1 on backporting tests - especially under the guise of stability.

My guess is that since we've increased the frequency of building tests that this being a case by case basis would be a pain. I think adding tests to document and improve stability should always be allowed. My two cents.

I don't see why we need a new "policy." In the past, only bug fixes were applied to release branches, and any other changes were discussed on a case-by-case basis. That process seems to have worked well so far.

Keep asking, If there are enough reason, we may come up with some policy that allows for it.
Or
may be we create one more release branch as soon as in next two months and kill this branch in its alpha stage itself.

It would be good if we could backport the field tooltip messages too.
Many thanks, chris

Btw I am not sure if this is a good question to you (and others of course)
about commit policy to the release branch.
We all know that the main idea behind the release branch is to provide a
more stable version of OFBiz.
I was just wondering if we could also change the commit policy to back port
unit test besides bug fixes.
This way there would be more code coverage with the additional unit tests
resulted by backporting to the release branch.
I am sorry if this has been already discussed in past.

Thanks Jacopo for all of your hard work to make it happen.
Btw I am not sure if this is a good question to you (and others of course)
about commit policy to the release branch.
We all know that the main idea behind the release branch is to provide a
more stable version of OFBiz.
I was just wondering if we could also change the commit policy to back port
unit test besides bug fixes.
This way there would be more code coverage with the additional unit tests
resulted by backporting to the release branch.
I am sorry if this has been already discussed in past.
