First off. Welcome and than you for responding to help with portage. |
2 |
|
3 |
With this many people, we should be able to make good progress without |
4 |
overloading any one person. |
5 |
|
6 |
General rule is to submit all patches to this list for review and |
7 |
approval before committing. |
8 |
|
9 |
Remember to do these always: |
10 |
1) run pyflakes on your changes to check for faults, misssing imports, |
11 |
variables undefined,... |
12 |
|
13 |
2) run the testsuite to check for breakage. It is in the base directory |
14 |
called runtests.sh. Please try to test it with all minimum supported |
15 |
python versions, but if you have pypy, and some others, then great. |
16 |
|
17 |
3) any new code that could break things, make a test for it if at all |
18 |
possible. |
19 |
|

|
21 |
The general exception for patch submittal is for trivial changes such as |
22 |
typo fixes, etc.. |
23 |
|
24 |
It will take a bit of time for everyone to acclimate themselves into our |
25 |
new team. So, I was thinking we give it 2 months, then hold an election |
26 |
for lead in March. Is that alright with everyone? |
27 |

Thanks |
