What commonly happens is that a new contributor sends a message, sees nothing on the archives, so they then subscribe, then send again under the assumption that it would help; and sometimes even send a third time when getting impatient that it hasn't shown up in list archives. Then, a few hours later, when the moderator finally releases the gates on the first-time post (a delay which happens whether you posted as a subscriber or non-subscriber), all of the multiple pending messages hit the list, making the new poster sound redundant. Varad, as a new contributor, you are in a position to possibly help us: what documentation pages did you read to learn where to post your patches, so that we can try and modify those pages to give more hints to help the next guy avoid the embarrassment of double posting? >=20 > But welcome to the community, and you'll surely find out how to optimiz= e > your workflow for the second patch. :) Indeed. And if you haven't already found it, http://wiki.qemu.org/Contribute/SubmitAPatch is a great resource (and again, knowing what pages you HAVE found may help us figure out if we can tweak those pages to more prominently point to this page). --=20 Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org --dD54hDOOMU4GwrbljUpHRKdICMHEtkkFK Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.15 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Public key at http://people.redhat.com/eblake/eblake.gpg Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJSikfoAAoJEKeha0olJ0NqpCgH/1vxAw92ItQMdMXdyg9MlrqK iqUYFwA3/TiGDZ6erVRGAvwSA1dfEnd3Ai8cLjTwnzeD/mp1Ux5ACa2NKw9GYgzz 5BWRplbsX0zt/p7iw7ymj3OeBxN7lXGvJ+vdONwrWqYoDiN4cMXsYTTRxPZcmee7 F1eTzvPOLSV17icPr6TfQ1OSIxKxedRslXhVNZe70a55fc+pzUyt5iHppEIJSI+x P8fjRiYM13/OA3OrwQtD2synlxvmEs1t2LDcOAeE+0Jx3iTeeHGvM9spU0IqSvUl SPU+5fAGA6KpJUV04f91DxUkac/ArbDKsgiwsgBY+viYB529dHtVPiUYfY1i7l0= =ZPpb -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --dD54hDOOMU4GwrbljUpHRKdICMHEtkkFK--
