Re: [cdt-dev] What is our policy on patches?

Hey all,

One way to resolve this would be to take a look at CVS log mail support 
again.  Now that I'm a SourceForge project admin, I've learned how to set 
this up for a CVS repository.  We could get the commit logs for selected 
projects to be sent to a mailing list, e.g. cdt-cvs.  We would then 
reserve the cdt-patch list for non-committers to request patches or to 
invoke voting on certain patches.

If we get a consensus, I'll volunteer to try and get this going (assuming 
the eclipse.org folks let us).

Thoughts?

I guess my main point is that if we were voting on patches or debating 
the content of these patches prior to them being committed, then the 
content on the list is useful.  If we are not doing that, then it 
merely serves as a reminder to do a CVS update.
