Simple End User Joe here, A suggestion for all concerned: Please try to forget personal differences, and solve the problem ahead. You are all very bright, you do awesome work, we all endlessly admire you and thank you for all you have achieved so far. But.
For me it seems that there IS a problem with development procedures, project structure AND communication. Take a look at your roadmap page. The fact that you are late is okay, this is an open source project after all. But 6 months worth of patches which cannot be reviewed is something which should something be done about. I would need no further support for the request of dropping gerrit or whatsnot than no one actually operates it. Okay, I understand, you are at the top of food chain are concerned with quality. And you simultaneously don't have enough time to review patches. Both are correct and understandable. And there is a way out of this situation. Require assurance of the stuff is working before even taking a look at it: unit tests and/or ack of an established developer, maybe even an end user report confirming the thing is working. Or formal verification with frama-c. Or whatever you read about in CC part 3 or the strike fighter air vehicle coding standards. But if the requirements are met, please take a quick look at it and commit it. And fast. Because if you raise the bar enough, you won't have much junk to sort out and you already have reasonable assurance. And please talk to each other. Maybe a daily^H^H^H^H^Hweekly scrum in IRC would be a good idea. _______________________________________________ opensc-devel mailing list opensc-devel@lists.opensc-project.org http://www.opensc-project.org/mailman/listinfo/opensc-devel
