I'll have a look at oca-ci.

oca-ci PR: OCA/oca-ci#37

[sbidoul]

runboat is up for OCB 16.0: https://runboat.odoo-community.org/builds?repo=oca/ocb

[sbidoul]

If anyone wants to try updating the repo template, that is welcome as I have little available time this week.
Mostly, we need to pick-up the latest linters (doing a dry-run of pre-commit autoupdate on an existing repo will give the versions to use), and determine which pylint-odoo rules to make mandatory, and the new ones to enable.

@sbidoul I'll take a look at the repo template.

oca-addons-repo-template PR: OCA/oca-addons-repo-template#160

[lmignon]

looking at oca-github-bot, the only thing that would need to be changed is the config on the server in the environment file to add version 16.0 in MAINTAINER_CHECK_ODOO_RELEASES

[pedrobaeza]

Why not adding from 16.0 to for example 20.0 for not having to worry about this part in some years?

[lmignon]

IMO the topics determine python and postgres version to use in CI and update [addons repo template](https://github.com/OCA/maintainer-tools/issues/github.com/oca/oca-addons-repo-template) can be ticked as done.
For the record I manually created the 16.0 branch on the rest-framework repo and created a first PR to check that runboat works as expected with odoo 16.0. -> 🍾

[pedrobaeza]

Should we proceed with the 16.0 branches creation? @sbidoul are you going to do like other years?

[sbidoul]

I'll do it yes. I was planning to do it this weekend if everything is ready.

Last open question I think is the pylint configs: OCA/oca-addons-repo-template#160 (comment)

[sbidoul]

I prepared OCA/social: OCA/social#974. All looking good.
Still waiting a little bit for input about pylint-odoo before opening all other repos.

Hi. I don't really know how to propose changes to Wiki pages (the edit buttton escapes me), so I'm gonna add a comment here.

IMHO the following items are worth considering as additions to the guide https://github.com/OCA/maintainer-tools/wiki/Migration-to-version-16.0:

• odoo/odoo@26b2472 changes to account.account: account.account.type model is no more, now account_type is a selection field.
• odoo/odoo@d8d47f9 accounting v16 - refactoring of @onchange methods. Some synchronization methods have been removed, there's less need to explicitly call methods to recompute account.move internals when making changes from python
• odoo/odoo@2348386 some fields became HTML from Text - this may affect you if you read/write them in python code

[pedrobaeza]

Hi, Marco, I'm afraid GitHub doesn't still offer any way to do such suggestion (or that seems so - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10642928/how-can-i-make-a-pull-request-for-a-wiki-page-on-github).

Anyway, the changes we put there are the framework ones, not the data model ones, as this last category is very long (see OCA/OpenUpgrade#3583 for the whole list of changes), and it will lose the focus of the guide, as you may not need to know those changes to make the migration (it depends on what are you touching).

It makes sense, thanks.
