Flectra ERP and CMS, an open source alternative do Odoo

[GustavoMarcante]

Instead of Odoo, mentioned before in Odoo - distributed business apps,
I suggest Flectra, a recent fork of his latest version (11) focused on open source, as Odoo is becoming more and more an open core software instead of open source.

They even recently had a legal agreement to make safe use it.

Pretty sweet license too. LGPL.
The team has 40 developers
They have consistently produced releases.

It seems there is a docker image made by Flectra team here https://hub.docker.com/r/flectrahq/flectra/

@benoit If the Flectra Docker image is based off the official Odoo one, that would be helpful, as the Docker image deploys an Odoo to deploy other Odoos (i.e. additional Odoo instances).

The Flectra demo is very snappy and looks quite pretty.

Odoo was starting to support proprietary stuff to the detriment of the Free Software. For example, the calendar functionality was setup to work with proprietary systems like Google Calendar and Outlook, but there was no Free standard available by default.

Flectra could take the lead over Odoo in some ways if they tried some more experimental features, like support for crypto-currency (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Monero...) in the e-commerce application.

Great suggestion, @GustavoMarcante
