See it from a different point of view: polling for changes doesn't scale. One (or several people) would have to inspect the location whether a new file is there. At what time intervals? How would they know the file is "in a good shape" and ready to use? An issue filed on the other hand pushes information to the people. An issue assigned to a CWS immediately tells everyone that "this specific revision of that file" is present in the source tree and when it was integrated. > BTW, we were initially told that it was better to submit translations > with a link to the original file, rather than attaching the > translation, because of the size of the translation file. Ah, size may be a problem, indeed. > Is that no longer appropriate? Should we attach that large file each > time? Don't know, probably not. However, changing a file, whether attached or not, after an issue was processed usually does not result in the desired effect. Eike -- OOo/SO Calc core developer.
