Echoing Graham's comment on the pace of development slowing, we have no

Hi Colin,
can you please tell me if it's normal that my patch has been ignored?
It's a very trivial patch, maybe I didn't follow the right procedure?
Or should I just wait for comments from developers?
Here's the issue:
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2480
I hoped that it could make it into the new stable, but now it seems
too late.. I'm looking forward to a new critical bug in 2.15.37 ;-)
Thanks,
Federico
Hello, Federico
I've put your patch straight onto the countdown, and it may be that one
of the senior developers will give the OK to push it without further review.
The reason it was overlooked is that, yes, you did go a bit outside the
usual channels. In the last few months, we've been relying on patches
being created with git-cl and lily-git, which means the issues get
created on Rietveld at the same time. They also get a status of
"patch-new", which gives the signal to the Patchy programs to test the
patch, and tells James or whoever is running Patchy, to change the
status top "patch-review". Because your patch is so small, you simply
attached it to the bug tracker issue, which means that none of the
Reitveld stuff happened. Both the robotic parts of the patch handling
system, and the almost robotic ones such as I, are looking for the patch
status of a Rietveld item to guide us in the action to be taken.
You'll be getting a copy of the update to the issue tracker item,
Federico, and I'll try and read the bug- list more carefully!
Cheers,
Colin
