[Vtigercrm-developers] Roadmap 6.5 and 7

[Ranieri]

I still think a fork or split is not the solution. But instead, joining
efforts.

On the financial side, I see two opposites, or free or expensive modules.

Back to the example, a module as Dynamic blocks for example, if your cost
is US $ 5, and considering that 10% of the base would be interested, we are
talking about $ 5,000.

For $ 5 it is difficult for anyone to want to develop again and a user find
it very expensive, not buy.

It's what I think. You have to make it happen, the wheel spin ...
