I wrote clear indications on:
http://www.opensc-project.org/opensc/wiki/GetInvolved

The reason for NOTICE and WARNING is to avoid newcomers getting lost.

Sure. I think unleashing creativity and offering liberty for new ideas
and plans is a good way to attract people. We will soon have a testing
farm and a developing farm with all known hardware.

I also agree that gerrit is a neutral system and should be used if
working. I am not against gerrit if working. On the converse. Any tool
designed to free communities is welcome.

I understand. You are very busy and I saw all your work in github these
last days. Thanks!

OK. At the moment, github is OK for me. I am contacting Viktor and
Feitian to discuss how to commit OpenSC-SM and ePass2003 branches.

Kind regards,
