Some details: (A) With some exemptions, I am going to make a general policy to decline patches that are based solely on re factorings or code simplifications rather than adding features or removing bugs. These changes, especially to a sensitive module such as import, require unneeded re-testing and we should be concentrating on the core functionality and use cases rather than the code itself. I think presently we have enough of an infrastructure to make things work sufficiently well and support the new auxillliary distros. Adding /additional/ distros (like SuSE) would be fair game and welcome at this time, if it did not touch the core of the code or reorganize it. There are too many corner cases to test and import has been a sore point in the early days of Cobbler -- it's taken us a long time to get what we have now. (B) Any changes to the importer are going to be limited to bugfixes for 1.4 at this point as we need to be getting a release out soon. I need to spend time testing new features and cannot continually re-test the importer. --Michael _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
