Hi.

I'm not fluent enough in "git" and never used "Github", so most
of what you write below is not at all clear to me.

Also, I'm not sure that we talk from the same basis.
Just to be sure: Commons Math is not hosted at "Github"; the "Github"
site is merely a "one-way" mirror.
Committers must "push" code to the "Apache" repository.

Hey Gilles,

Having been thinking about these sorts of ideas considerably in my
day job, it might be worth considering adding some status checks for
formatting. These aren’t too difficult to implement, but do require
some mechanics.

Its mainly having github POST to some configured url, and having some
flavor of script run and POST several varieties of statuses back to
the git commit hash.

Further, the public github has the mechanics in place to provide a
pull request template that provides some assistance with this
formatting.

Hello.

Struggling with how to share non-committer contributions:
 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-1290

At some point, we should have a paragraph in
 doc/development/development.howto.txt

I would suggest using a CONTRIBUTING.md at the root of the project,
as this seems to be a de facto standard for github projects, simply
for the ease of creating a nicely formatted page which is versionable
along with the code.

All the best,
-Rob

that would explain which steps the contributor and committer must
follow (i.e. one, simple, fool-proof, way) in order to, respectively,
create and merge a pull request.


Thanks,
Gilles
