What gets easier in Odoo V10
Yoshi Tashiro (QRTL)

October already, before I noticed. Odoo Experience is on in Belgium this week and I cannot make it, so I am at work in Hong Kong instead.

Odoo Experience is where the features of Odoo V10 — now counting down to release — are presented, with Odoo's people and the community's hard cases all giving talks. Ahead of that I went to the Odoo V10 introduction event held in Hong Kong last month, so what follows is the content of the deck used there. The original is here. It is almost all bullet points, for which I apologise — so was the original.
