Hi,

In order to attract community contributors it would be good to standardize patch contributions.

Many other projects recommend for non-trivial patches, a JIRA to be open and a patch to be attached to the JIRA. It's easier to review patches attached to a JIRA; all you need to do is to click on the attachment and it appears in a browser window.

Clearly any committer has the ability to commit at will. But if the patch needs to be reviewed, a JIRA issue with a discussion is a great way to capture everyone's feedback in one place.

Regards,

Craig

These are dirk's domain...

Didn't take these in, as the patch wasn't clean - it failed on everything but English. Also, they seemed to have loads of other changes as well, which I wasn't too comfortable with.

* slight modification/simplification to WikiPageEvent
* addition of WikiPageRenameEvent (I *thought* this was already in CVS
  and consider this a really necessary addition, otherwise there's no
  notification on page name changes)
* change of private to protected on a method in LuceneSearchProvider to
  permit extension
* added class info to error message output of ClassUtil

The rest are in.

I'm still wondering though why you don't put these in yourself - you *do* have commit access to the CVS... ;-)
