There are two common patterns at the ASF: RTC and CTR, which are Review The Commit and Commit Then Review. Most places operate with a CTR policy. If it turns out that there are controversial topics that need to be ironed out on list, then I encourage people to voluntarily follow a Review Then Commit policy, i.e., discuss proposed modifications here, attempt to build consensus and then proceed based on that consensus. Non-controversial changes can continue with as CTR. - Sam Ruby --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
