Topics

DoliStore

The Dolibarr Foundation has been running the DoliStore since ~ 2015.

The Foundation's goal with the DoliStore was to provide an ecosystem, let's call it a platform, where anyone could sell and distribute (in the meaning of GNU/GPL), and be retributed, with new features for Dolibarr.

Until now, the Foundation has applied an "open policy", within its regularly updated rules Terms and Conditions: anyone can offer features that are not yet part of Dolibarr core, or that are not meant to be.

Recently, the number of new module submissions has surged (largely cause to AI tools), the foundation is no more able to ride the wave of incomming proposals, with the acutal process.

As of November 10, 2026, 216 new modules are waiting for reviews. In some cases, same submitters sent around 20 modules within a few minutes, or even seconds. That kind of output is only possible with AI assistance.

This is not a bad thing in itself.

Creativity is at the heart of the Dolibarr philosophy, and we welcome it.

But for the Foundation, it is a clear signal that, right here and right now, we need to pause the publication of new modules, in other word TAKE A BREAK AS HUMAN BEGING.

The Foundation has emailed all module providers (yet approved or not) that there is a "work in progress" processing time now.

At a time when the watchword is "go fast with AI", we choose "take time to make it right".

There is currently a dedicated voluntary team that try to deal with next comming rules : Commission dolistore

French Certification of Dolibarr system for France by LNE

Certification costs

On 27 oct 2026:

Payed by dolibarr fundation to BYCYB => 7 577,75 € HT

Engaged by dolibarr fundation to BYCYB => 21 612,00 € HT

Other estimated Cost with all time passed on this certification ("~99%" by Laurent Destailleur as DoliCloud, and during the audit by Laurent Magnin as Eoxia/Evarisk) => ~ 80 000 €

Audit status

The first audit result is a NO GO, because: * Dolibarr can be self-hosted; * the database can be changed; * transactions can be altered.

A second audit (estimated cost: ~€6,000 excl. VAT) will be carried out.

Technical proposal for the second audit

The Foundation would use a private secure key to anchor the BlockedLog chain, so that any alteration becomes detectable.

This implies that: Dolibarr will need Internet access and the Foundation's server must be online during invoice validation and payment registration.

The purpose of this second audit is only to validate the technical proposal.

E-invoicing

The release 1.4.0 is available.

The community "sub" repository is highly active (more 500 changes since septembre 2026)

The release 1.5.0 is on going, change log will be available (when released) here : https://github.com/Dolibarr/dolibarr-community-modules/blob/main/einvoicing/ChangeLog.md
