As part of our continued efforts to improve the process, we have added
the "preapproved" tag to bugzilla.
An enhancement request that has the "preapproved" tag is considered
reviewed and vetted by Walter (and myself on occasion). An
implementation of the issue is guaranteed to be approved pending
technical review.
This is part of a larger attempt to make it easy for contributors to
work on items of maximum impact, while hedging the risk of working on
some feature without entering production. One nice perk is that this
flow will encourage well-written and well-argued enhancement requests.
We will follow later today with a preapproved enhancement request. (Of
course, we will also preapprove enhancements written by others, too.)
Would it also make sense to have a separate mailing list to post and
discuss D development process announcements such as this important one?
That would make it easier for some trying to learn the development
process of the group.
Something like D.devprocess, D.processes or D.development.
I think we're in good shape. D.announce has low enough traffic as is.
