See also: this thread right here. ... Actual discussion happening. Can you imagine trying to do the same on a web forum? ... Little barrier to entry to the discussion. (An email account.) I happen to agree with Laszlo. We should retain the ability for people to run git format-patch/send-email to contribute. If we adopt some web based system, we should note that we are going to cut some people out of that loop. I've seen Gerrit a little, but I've not actually worked with it. Regarding what I saw, I wasn't particularly impressed (nor concerned). It didn't appear to bring all that much beyond email reviews. -Jordan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ edk2-devel mailing list edk2-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/edk2-devel
