Hi Steve, thanks a lot for your interest on chains! :)
Documentation is never enough, so if you do have some more samples/hints/.../whatever, feel free to push one or more patches on JIRA, I'd be more than glad to apply it! Same thing for unit tests, or improve the test coverage - patches are more than welcome, and playing with tests is usually a good way to get familiar with codebase :) Thanks a lot in advance for your involvement, hope to read from you soon! Have a nice day, all the best, -Simo http://people.apache.org/~simonetripodi/ http://simonetripodi.livejournal.com/ http://twitter.com/simonetripodi http://www.99soft.org/ On Fri, Mar 15, 2013 at 1:53 PM, Steve Westwood <steve.westw...@hexsaw.org.uk> wrote: > Hi Simone, > > Thanks for the response; > > My first thought on commons-chain relate to the other 2.0 issues apart from > CHAIN-76 that have been delivered (which is a lot I notice - congratulations > on getting to this point!).
