Who said anything about a customer? A newcomer to a community (i.e. Matthieu's student) needs not just to show technical excellence with patches, but needs to make a good argument on a larger design decision; old timers already tried to achieve a concensus on it, and did not manage to do so the last time we tried. It is a tough topic for a newcomer developer to tackle. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
