I want to help reviewing the patches and be guided by you to do it well. In this mean time I took a look at the Workflow page (https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NUTTX/Code+Contribution+Workflow+--+Brennan+Ashton) and I think it is not describing the Process, so I will try to get your suggested steps and include it there. We could use the Mynewt page as reference: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MYNEWT/Submitting+Pull+Requests Not their process, but their structure more direct to the goal. BR, Alan
