I'm unclear as to the required procedure for RTC. Is it required to
literally include the patch contents in an email to the dev list or
does a link to a JIRA issue suffice?
For an patch by a non-committer attached to a JIRA issue that I wish
to apply, can I vote for it or does it in fact require 4 committer
votes, as apparently a patch I come up with does?
Lets consider a concrete example:
In particular I'm looking at http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/
attachment/12334350/GERONIMO-2006.patch attached to http://
issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-2006
Assuming I conclude that this patch is appropriate, do I:
-- copy the patch into an email I send to the dev list, indicating
that I think it should be applied
-- send an email with the above links, indicating I think it should
be applied.
Then, do I need 2 or 3 additional +1s?
Thanks
