I think that the git workflow page is probably a good place to consolidate developer-focused (or serious-contributor-focused) information. I don't think it is a great place to point outside contributors. An external contribution has a few parts: 1. External contributor submits contribution. 2. Somebody makes sure it is good. 3. The contribution makes it into a repository official branch. Part 3 and possibly part 2 might belong on that git workflow page. I think part 1 really needs to be on a "how to contribute" page that is really focused on outsiders. Of course, having an overall git workflow that is inclusive of both internal and external contributions where it comes to the actual Gentoo dev doing the commits seems like a good idea. -- Rich
