Hi,
I'm writing because I see an evident need of making a few commons sense
habits
a rule in time in which whatever is not written gets games around with
little or no consideration.
In the GeoServer history something deemed worthy of a GSIP has been going
though the following steps:
- Open discussion against a written proposal and vote
- Actual code development (could start earlier, but at the risk of the
one proposing the GSIP)
- Pull request and review (because accepting a plan does not equate
accepting its implementation)
The first step has some wait time to allow the PSC to review the proposal,
it's now set to 1 week.
The last one, never had a max time to be performed, but people knew and
respected the key developers
in the area and allowed a bit of time for changes to be reviewed (the
longer, the bigger the pull request
was, with some consideration about avoiding too large pull requests at all
costs, given review is not paid).
Unfortunately it seems that common sense and consideration have left this
community, replaced by haste and
literal rule application, so I'm proposing to add a time limit for review
of pull requests associated to
GSIPs, before automatic merge is done, in order to have some clarity and
shared understanding.
Mimicking the proposal discussion, I'd say 1 week time, plus an extra week
in case someone
from the PSC needs extra time and explicitly asks for it.
If there are no substantial objections I'm going to write down the proposal
in the next few days.
Cheers
Andrea
