(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...
He sounds like an outstanding guy. But seriously, Alan, you should
brag like that in public. I've never known those sleep statements to
do any of the things you describe :)
There's a report that goes out to the scm list once a week of open
issues with patches. Does that fit the bill?
