Re: [platform-swt-dev] Gerrit reviews

["Niraj Modi" <niraj.modi@xxxxxxxxxx>]

SWT team has been reviewing work/gerrits
from external contributors and even from Conrad see bug 401015.

Regarding this particular bug 23837
which wasn't a planned item for Neon and the gerrit came in too late for
us to consider it & review/verify it in current milestone, where in
our efforts for M7 was largely planned around the much important HighDPI
feature and it's related bugs.
BTW, we have already shared our initial
testing comments on this bug.

Regards,
Niraj

This is a request for SWT committers taking care/having
access to Windows machines:

It's a really rare even to have a patch from someone outside of the project
trying to do fixes in the proper way by utilizing the underlying platform.
I really believe we should encourage people doing this to prevent the pile
of workarounds happening on platform.ui level due to our slowness. So could
someone review/test https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/70598. It can be incomplete and etc. but we have to act promptly and tell submitter
if there is something wrong. Keeping the patch in the queue and waiting
one more year before it gets into a release is an experience that would
definitely discourage me.
