It is close to two months that I have been the only person running test-patches, even though several volunteers claimed they would do so. It has been the main reason I shelled out €20 for a week of internet access during my spring vacation.
My limited computing resources mean that I have to take every shortcut I can to get this reasonably done. It is a bottleneck of development. My shortcuts tend to lead to erroneous data for making decisions, cf <URL:http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2468#c25>, and thus can alienate developers and cause unnecessary delays and hickups. It also means that I can spare no flexibility for dealing with things like submissions not following the rules <URL:http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2480>, again possibly alienating developers instead of getting them more smoothly into our procedures. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
