Hi Johannes,
On a side-note: It's not only about peer review - without signing the
CLA one might still read the code and send reports to the maintainers.
I was responding to Richard when I wrote that. He was operating under the
assumption that php.net have control over what goes into a CLA'd module, and
that's the sense in which 'peer review' was used in his post.
But we can't maintain it! This is a major change in the development
process, currently everybody with CVS account, which you can get quite
easily compared to many other projects, can fix any bugs in every place
(ok, Zend/ and TSRMLS/ are a bit limited, but still) and if we decide on
a API change, like the recent change with refcounts the required fixes
can easily applied.
With code, which is bundled and under a CLA everybody who wants to do
even simple changes, fixing compile errors, ... is _forced_ to sign it
for doing serious work.
Precisely.
- Steph
