[Don Kirkby (donkirkby)]

Are you sure it should be merged into trunk? There are also branches for 5.0, 6.0, and 6.1, and you should merge into the earliest one that your documentation applies to.

You can commit the changes yourself if you join the OpenERP Community team. It's an open team that anyone can join.
