| Re: Patch Docs
Nikesh,
In that case, each company handles the distribution of the custom patches differently and there isn't a standardized process. You'll need to look at the customizations that you've made, the files included and determine the best way to package them up for installation -- making it easy for the customer and as straightforward and error-proof as possible. More important than the installation procedure is having complete and proper documentation.
I created the OTM installer, so I'm comfortable with tools like InstallAnywhere and will often use it for large, complex customizations. Other times, a simple zip or jar file works best.
Regardless, we utilize an internal source control system to manage versions and changes to the custom code and I highly recommend that you do the same.
