(finally) I would like to make it easier on developers to be able to
identify patch requests on the mailing list. I know we have Jira
to house
the issues and the patch contents but usually you get an email
asking for
someone to review/apply a patch and since there is no particular
format for
the request, it is hard to make sure you don't miss a request. I'm
not sure
we need a real process but maybe just a suggested email subject
line that
jumps out to us developers so we don't overlook a patch review/
application
request. Thoughts?
Someone on the OpenEJB team is really, really, good at writing
automatic jobs that run Jira reports and sends mail to dev lists. I
wonder if we could have one that lists ready patches that haven't
been picked up by a committer. Hmmm, his name escapes me...
