The inquiries I've seen so far were not about patches. They were of the "how to I get started" variety. We would need volunteers (or good documentation) on how to get into a project to the point where patches can be created. Many projects that are alive and kicking don't have that kind of documentation, I suspect that most podlings don't have it either. You'd need people familiar with the podling to guide the newcomers. Even so, having a place to post patches is a good idea. cheers, Roland --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
