A lot of the problem is time limitations for me personally. Every day I go to sleep late wishing I could stay up just a little later :) I never get everything I want done and I have a back log list of things I'm interested in a mile long. So I sympathize, but I'm stretched thin personally. I do think though, if you look at CHANGES.txt, you will see that I do commit a lot of other peoples patches! They just tend to be targeted things that are relatively easy to digest. Also, things that are on my itch list. The main patches you have supplied so far are quite large! And touch areas that involve other committers. Large patches and multiple parties do not generally do well as we have mentioned in the past. It depends on the committers, their time, their agenda, their itch list, timing, etc. I wouldn't give up trying to contribute though. Many of the things tied up in your larger issues are things I'd like to get too. Once or twice I've already gone into your work to 'steal' a bit when addressing issues (once I got the time). I know you'd prefer we were looser about committing if tests just pass, but it comes down to what each committer is comfortable taking responsibility for - and I'm not willing to generally commit larger patches like that unless I have thoroughly vetted them - something that takes a lot of my time. I hope you continue contributing in any case! -- - Mark --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
