If all these things are mandated before a patch is even looked at I can assure you that very few people (if anyone) contributes back. Currently a lot of these verifications happen from reviewers/committers (at least for the GTK port) as it is simply not reasonable to expect someone contributing on their free time to invest in having all the complicated infrastructure to do these checks. So all these should become like - "Patches satisfying all the items on the list may/will be reviewed with priority". > > > Regards, > Niraj Modi > _______________________________________________ > platform-dev mailing list > platform-dev@eclipse.org > To change your delivery options, retrieve your password, or unsubscribe > from this list, visit > https://www.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/platform-dev -- Alexander Kurtakov Red Hat Eclipse Team
