Patches procedure

Patches procedure

[Przemyslaw Wesolek]

Hi,

On 5 November I posted two patches considering boost. None of them has
been applied to git.

As I'm a novice here, am I breaking some social contract or missing some
procedural steps to get patches applied? Shall I ask for Ack's and
commits directly, or simply sending patches is enough?

I don't want to sound rude, I just don't understand the "machinery" and
wiki doesn't explain anything beyond my current knowledge.

The problem is time and man power. And as I said earlier I only have the time to fix the
packages with the latest version. The best solution I can think of is, that you apply
for write access. So you have to write an email to the dev list with pointers
to your patches and ask for write access. If 3 devs or 2 from core(steering comitee now?) 
give there ack you have to send your ssh-key to the admins.

Bye Henning

So hereby I ask for commit bit to OpenEmbedded git repo.

  http://patchwork.openembedded.org/patch/1229/
  http://patchwork.openembedded.org/patch/1227/
  http://patchwork.openembedded.org/patch/1226/

Hi,

are we doing the old way for write access or is the steering commite in function now?
But for the safety he has my ACK for write access.

The technical steering committee has not yet been voted on, so it can't
be effective :)

That aside, I don't think voting on accepting new members should be put
to the TSC in the first place.

So... +1 from me.

:M:
