I have read virtually very email on this list since 2004. The basic expectations have never changed for a developer who wishes to help move axiom forward. Work on a change, document it, submit a patch. I am free to use whatever SCM I choose. I am free to pursue whatever problem my heart desires. There are no restrictions, there are no bottlenecks. If I have a problem to solve I can hack away in whatever manner suits me. I can document my work in the process. I can test and verify my changes locally using whatever technique gives me confidence. Once satisfied, using any tool of my choosing, I can post a diff against Silver in a matter of seconds. It is my responsibility, and mine alone, to ensure that the change is a quality change. Silver is a moving target. If a conflict were to emerge between my change and Silver, I deal with it. The process is so blindingly simple I find it hard to believe it even needs discussion.
