What is Launchpad ?

Launchpad (https://launchpad.net) is a hosting service for open source projects that's big on collaboration. Its goal is to keep track of modifications brought to the code. It permits to share code, bug reports, translations and ideas across projects.

Since July 2008, Openerp has decided to change his previous system (svn) to be incorporated in launchpad.

How to use Launchpad ?

Launchpad uses a tool called bazaar. You need to install it before using our launchpad locations. For any informations, you can refer to: http://bazaar-vcs.org and https://launchpad.net.

Under linux, you can generally use the distribution installation system (apt-get or rpm) to install the package named bzr.

For Windows and Mac users, you can download latest stables versions of bazaar here.

How to use it ?

There are several ways to use bazaar.

Under linux, you can use bzr command line tool (the command: "man bzr" will give you some nice informations), or install some clients (like eclipse).

For Windows and mac users, you can install and run cygwin and use some command line tools or install some clients (like eclipse).
