ASF subversion and git services commented on OFBIZ-12021:
---------------------------------------------------------

Commit 686f01c8cfc1427ca2a5b623c7e7a5b970cb8e0c in ofbiz-framework's branch refs/heads/trunk from Jacques Le Roux
[ https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf?p=ofbiz-framework.git;h=686f01c ]

Improved: "description" and "comment" datatypes unnecessarily limited to 255 char  (OFBIZ-12021)

"Description" and "comment" fields are restricted to 255 char.

However after some research I found that all the supported databases support
longer then 255 char
I would expect users to want to write more then 255 char in a comment
(I know I personally can).

A discussion has been started on dev ML:

Also adds a note in DATAMODEL_CHANGES.adoc

Thanks: ddev
