1. Please continue to fix the SSL certificate issues. Specifically - there is no actual documentation about the correct way to add/update CA Certs. We had to stumble around and finally figured out how to use the letsencrypt tool built into more recent menu systems of the TKL menus.
SSL is vital today - please fix the problems and post reasonable directions for dealing with SSL. Referring users to previous incomplete threads that don't actually contain solutions is fruitless, and tarnishes the luster of the fantastic work being done on TKL appliances.
2. Upgrade from previous TKL Odoo must actually work
Please dont assume that its "no problem" to begin using the latest and greatest TKLs unless there is some way to migrate - it will be excruciating for mission cricital users to do anything but stay in the old, obsolete versions. This is a constant issue with almost every appliance across almost all groups that deliver these appliances.
Avoid statements like "just follow the upchannell instructions for upgrade". Most of the time, those instructions are arcane, difficult if not impossible to follow, and in the short run - do not work.
Stranding user data in old appliances is one of the most serious issues preventing uptake of apliances today. Most serious users have already 'been down that road' and won't willingly go there again.
To make the TKL appliances truly usable - viable migration to new version must be striaghtforward, understandable, and reliably work.
TKL Appliances are some of the best available anywhere - but the above issues are serious, and limit the usability of the TKL appliances.
It's sad - you go through a great deal of work to make them awesome - but leave things like viable SSL instructions and upgrade path's unaddressed, vauge and unworkable.
We always look to TKL first - and with great preference. But these issues persist, and often times prevent uptake of your systems.
