Dear TinyOS-help:

I have patches for motelist that will detect a micaz on a MIB520 (both
for the Windows and the Linux source), and was kicking around the idea
of submitting a patch for a couple of typos in the tutorial.

My question is how best to go about it. I checked the contribution page,
http://www.tinyos.net/contrib.html, but I don't think these sort of
changes warrant developer access to the CVS tree (I'm too green with
TinyOS anyway).  Should I just just post the list, attaching the
output of a 'cvs diff' ?

Posting to tinyos-help is one option. It has the benefit that lots of people who might use the patch will see it, but has the drawback that the person who can commit it might miss it in the shuffle. You can also send it to the maintainer of the file; the best way to figure this out is to look at the CVS history and see who's worked on it. This has the benefit that the maintainers will definitely see it.

So I'd recommend sending it to both. If the maintainers don't pick it up in a little while, then send it my way; I can poke someone in core to take a look.

Phil
