> I am sure that you are aware that the Eclipse Foundation has long had a

> required the creation of a Contribution Questionnaire, and a review and
> approval by the IP team.

> I am happy to announce that effective immediately, the requirement for
> filing a CQ has been raised to 1,000 lines of code added. To verify
> whether a contribution requires a CQ, use one of the following git
> commands to check:
> 
>      If it's committed:  git log --shortstat
>      If not committed: git diff --stat
> 
> These commands tell you the number of insertions(+), and deletions(-).
> If the total number of lines inserted (e.g. added) in a contribution is
> greater than 1000 (yes, this includes comments) then a CQ is required.
> 
> I hope that this both simplifies and clarifies the expectations around
> accepting contributions. The other in-bound contribution requirements
> such as CLAs and signed-by remain in place unchanged.

> Thanks!
