[Sugar-devel] Acked-by vs Reviewed-by

2013-04-03 Thread Daniel Narvaez
Hi, it seems that most of our patches should have a Reviewed-by tag, on the contrary I see Acked-by used most of the time (at the top of the sugar-toolkit-gtk3 log at least). Am I missing something? -- Daniel Narvaez ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar

Ok I see how you can read https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/SubmittingPatches that way. Though, man, the whole document feels so unnecessarily complicated and unclear if applied to Sugar. If we keep using these tags I think we should write a simpler explanation which applies to our project.

That's really up to the maintainer. If the maintainer pushes the patch, then Acked-by may be inferred. In general these procedures scale well to large numbers of maintainers, contributors, and reviewers. I'm not sure they remain appropriate for Sugar given the size of the community at the moment
