I will create an account for you and I will send the login data to you offlist. Do you PGP or anything alike? As for the workflow: Wars have been waged to etablish the right way [tm] to do this. I suggest whatever we do, make it easy to adopt or people will turn away because they need to spend too much work on project administration. The mailman repo is public. Anyone can pull a copy from it. If they want to contribute code/docs/..., they have to submit a merge request at <https://project.sys4.de/python/mailman/merge_requests>. Then its up to one of the developers to look at the new code and then to decide whether it should be merged or not. It's up to a developer or any more privileged role to conduct the actual merge. As for pulling: To my knowledge it is best practise to pull before you begin your work. Of course one should create a branch and work in that, so the code won't interfere with other changes, while you work on it. p@rick -- [*] sys4 AG https://sys4.de, +49 (89) 30 90 46 64 Franziskanerstraße 15, 81669 München Sitz der Gesellschaft: München, Amtsgericht München: HRB 199263 Vorstand: Patrick Ben Koetter, Marc Schiffbauer Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender: Florian Kirstein _______________________________________________ Mailman-Developers mailing list Mailman-Developers@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-developers%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-developers/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9
