Cool. It's a plan! Martin, here's one idea for how we can collaborate. Since test cases are my favorite kind of documentation, maybe we can us them to help us get started. Here are some different approaches we could use depending on where things are at now:
Good: If your code does not have test cases perhaps I can help write them and thereby come to an understanding of it. Better: If there are test cases already, I'll start by reading and running them and come up to speed that much more quickly. Best: If you have some failing test cases for code not yet implemented, I'll start in on trying to make them pass. Look forward to working with you, --Chris On 8/17/07, Charles Oliver Nutter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Chris Nelson wrote: > > Hi Martin, > > > > I recognize you from Netbeans Issuezilla :) It's great to hear someone > > has already started on this.
