[Proposal] Better handling of patches
Hi XWiki committers, We need to better handle patch contributions. It's really important that when someone submits a patch we review it quickly and apply it or ask for modifications. Providing a fast answer means that we'll get more contributions and XWiki will soar even higher... Right now we're doing a poor job at handling patches. The first step in improving is in detecting issues with patches. I have thus started tagging issues with patches with "patch" in the keyword field. I propose that we all do this whenever we see an issue with a patch attached. I have also modified the default JIRA dashboard on http:// jira.xwiki.org/ so that the list of issues with patches attached are listed in the right column. If you agree I propose we make it our priority to review and fix issues with patches attached. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent
i definitely agree. nothing worst than waiting for a patch to be applied for a contributor i think(if the patch is good). On 4/3/07, Vincent Massol <[email protected]> wrote:

Vincent, I updated the documentation here: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/Contributing to describe usage of the patch keyword. Luis On 4/3/07, Vincent Massol <[email protected]> wrote:
