Hello Deepak:
Yes, the parallel release numbering can be confusing, and I believe
deters many potential newcomers. It is an unfortunate state of affairs.
I've been using OFBiz almost since the project's inception and IMHO, the
best place to start exploring the many and varied aspects of this
amazing project is with the older, more stable 4.x release. OFBiz
veterans will argue most vociferously against this advice, suggesting
newer and bigger is better. I maintain that from an end-user and
new-user's point of view the 4.x release works and behaves in a very
predictable fashion. While it may not have all the newer features and
functions as documented here
http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBIZ/Main+New+Features one gets a really
good sense of how OFBiz works by tinkering with it for a short time.
Once you're comfortable with 4.x and know where you want to go with
OFBiz, it is much easier to master the new, more feature reach 9.x
releases. OFBiz has much to offer and sometimes, the best way to digest
it all is by taking small bites.
Just my 2 cents.
