You can send me (or any other PSC member) some text or a link to a google
docs, along with a couple of screen shots, and we can add it to the blog.
As for the pull request.
1. We have some project headers for you to use on new files.
/* This code is licensed under the GPL 2.0 license, available at the root
* application directory.
*
* @author Nuno Oliveira
* @author Juha Hyvärinen / Cyberlightning Ltd
*/
2. I see lots of changed (or added classes) and no test cases. Since this
is "just" a community module it is not subject to the usual QA standards
for the project so I suppose we can let that slide. Do keep in mind that
lack of test coverage will be a roadblock to seeing the module upgraded to
an extension in the future.
3. I also need to check if you (and your organisation) have a contributors
agreement sent in.
