Writing that up would be a great idea -- for two reasons: 1) Those of us with some time could assist with checking submitted packages. 2) Those of us who submit packages could use the document to do our own checking -- thus leading, with a little luck, to better initial submissions.

[Fink-devel] Keeping the tracker moving
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I'm probably a month+ away from having Leopard going (I've asked for it for Christmas and it's going to be a very busy December and January for me), and I don't foresee an Intel box, and therefore the ability for me to look at Intel-only issues, in the near future. There's at least one package on the tracker right now that is listed as an Intel-only upgrade, so if somebody could take a look at it (and others, if present), it would be nice; if anything is 10.5-only (I haven't noted anything as of yet) that could also benefit from some attention. Commit access isn't mandatory. I'm kind of thinking that I should write up a developer-type document (on the wiki) dealing with the procedures that I use for evaluating packages on the tracker, and to get additional contributions in case I've left something out. If we have a systematic methodology to follow, it might be easier for somebody who actually has an Intel box to step in and follow identical procedures to what I'm doing and thereby maintain consistency. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHWCsGB8UpO3rKjQ8RAoDpAJ4/CM4uNIPnmERR6D7lMHJQP5cnZwCdFP5c fiXrMxe8+n0IAjdTOwKc7MQ= =4Yid -END PGP SIGNATURE- - SF.Net email is sponsored by: The Future of Linux Business White Paper from Novell.
