Folks:

I've been noticing a lot of people forgetting to do their due dilligence by running the check_patch.py script in their trees before submitting patches. I say this because I'm seeing many silly mistakes that could be easily avoided by doing this simple measure.

So please, do check and test your stuff before sending it to the mailing list. I will still double check, because I know people are bound to forget this, but this doesn't mean you don't have to do what you are supposed to.

I will start to reject outright such patches. I have been fixing patches for a long time now because we had a lot of volume in contributions and not a lot of maintainers, so either I'd do this or I would drown in patches.

Now it's time we start being less forgiving. Also, please be more mindful of comments and commit messages. We will be asking people to fix their commit messages as well.

Thanks,

Lucas
