Who is talking about that? The point is that patches should not been sent to a ml. I am subscribed to around 50 different ml and if I receive only one attachment (let us say around 1 MB) from each list I have 50 MB overhead in my mailbox. The push model is not suitable for patches! The issue tracker however is the supposed place for patches! That is why it is called issue tracker. Why do you have the impression it would play the role of rapidshare? I always talked about patches and contributions that are interesting for the project and never said you should upload porn. > However, and that is especially true for the larger patches, your > personal space on people.apache.org can be used to exchange files > which are too large for email attachment. That is only feasible for committers but not for John Doe that do not has an apache account and want to send a diff. salu2 > > Vadim -- Thorsten Scherler <thorsten.at.apache.org> Open Source Java <consulting, training and solutions> Sociedad Andaluza para el Desarrollo de la Sociedad de la Información, S.A.U.
