Hi Be / Tuukka, Sorry for missing this discussion. This is a great topic to have guidelines around.
I'm concerned about expecting the preset contributor to be involved in our development workflow (Git, GitHub). This is a high bar that's going to exclude a large portion of our user base from participating. The way we have functioned for years now is that users post presets on our forums and we do some legwork to bundle them with Mixxx if they aren't sending us merge requests directly. I don't think we should stop that but instead (and what I have been doing for quite some time) is engage the preset developer and ask them to submit PRs -- but if that isn't an option for them or they aren't interested, regularly sync their version from them on the forums to the codebase. If there is an existing preset then we usually check that a couple of forum users confirm it works well. If it diverges significantly from the original preset functionality then we might stick it in alongside the existing one. In particular, https://github.com/mixxxdj/mixxx/pull/780 seemed fine to me. Multiple forum users confirmed it was a valuable addition to the existing preset so it's pretty normal for us to include.
