Comment 7 for bug 1082981

Hello,

I don't know about the quality of this module, but I just want to mention
there are the tr_barcode* modules by Techreceptives and Julius, see
http://techreceptives.com/?q=blog/openerp-barcode-module
and
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~stock-logistic-core-editors/stock-logistic-barcode/6.1/files/head:/
offering the choice of what type of barcode you want. May be that EAN13
field should be merged inside that more generic barcode module and dropped
from the core?

Regards.
