My concern is that we would make the submitters responsible for something other than the quality of the patch if we require them to create private repositories. Normally, a patch is good as long as it applies. With a private repository, it will need to be kept up-to-date with the master repository, otherwise testing might find already fixed problems. As for the deadlocks, I don't think it's a technical issue. In any case, I find myself submitting too many patches, I'm ready to reconsider, but right now I cannot create any private repositories. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
