Hi, all! Right now I am under a pile of patches that need help and review. I have two problems here right now:
1. They are scattered all around. Some are github pull requests, some are emails to the list, some are personal emails, some are sourceforge patch tickets. 2. There are not enough people reviewing them. When I see a patch to code I know very well (like the main event code, or the bufferevent code, or the dns code) I am very comfortable reviewing it. But when it is a patch to evhttp or evprc, I find that I delay too long because I am worried that I am missing something. So I'd like to suggest the following: for 1: I've tried asking people to please use one patch-tracking system or another in the past, and it didn't work out so well. People have their own systems that they like best, and I don't want to make people less productive. Nevertheless, for my own sanity, I really need to ask: if you have a pending patch that has gone for more than a couple of days without a merge, please create a pull request OR a sourceforge patch ticket. For 2: Please feel welcome and invited to review and comment on other people's patches. If there are more eyes on every patch, I won't need to worry so much that I'm missing something important or getting bogged down in irrelevant details. I know that there are a lot of people here who are hacking on evhttp, for instance. I'd love to know what _you_ think of the patches pending review. sleepily, -- Nick *********************************************************************** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to majord...@freehaven.net with unsubscribe libevent-users in the body.
