What's new from this week?
- Functional Improvements

  - IDEMPIERE-4602 Encrypt passwords on properties files (FHCA-1982) / fix installers problem
- Development Improvements
  - IDEMPIERE-4723 Clean up code -> remaining org.adempiere.base/src/org/compiere/model/ classes
  - IDEMPIERE-4912 Wrong UOM on order line when creating from rest webservice - Add unit test
- There were also some improvements in the REST API plugin
- Plus a first version of the documentation wiki: REST Web Services
Donation initiative - follow up - shorter message version to add in iDempiere dashboard
- We reuse Chuck's proposal for the weekly update and see how it looks on the dashboard, then we decide if we stay with it or not.
Suggestions to improve the Plugin page
- We need to improve the plug-in page. Heng Sin proposes to enforce rating with review. Ratings alone can be harmful
- @druiz still thinks the idea of a community plug-in test day is worth trying. A day were everyone tries at least to use or install the plug-ins listed there
- -> We plan the test day to have a real list of usable plugins
- Based on that number we check how much time it would consume to move that to a Marketplace WP plug-in page, and we analyze what needs to be done with new plug-ins
