Indeed - I thought, given the documentation on the site, that the correct way to submit patches was to the developers list, with [PATCH] on the front. Is this wrong? I can see that many other people are doing the same thing. >Putting my USER hat, I think it is understandable that people get >frustrated by the current process. Yep. Being behind an aggressive firewall, in order to generate patches I have to manually get the files to diff against. When they change, I have to go through the process all over again as the uncommitted change is now out of sync. Evidently changing the copyright notice is of a higher priority. >> >I myself filed a bug >> [http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=7045], >> >fix it, and put the patch on Bugzilla.

Its also frustrating to look through the logs to find that someone has created an enhancement that you were thinking of doing or need, but that nobody did anything with it so it's possibly stale with respect to the current source tree. Yes I could do a custom build but it's a huge pain in the bum! Concrete example: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ant-dev&m=99893840528247&w=2 That would have been really useful to me. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
