Koen brought up this in the thread on the review process. As it (mostly) is about this thread I felt it was more appropriate here.

I don't know what others think about it, but I see only a few matches. That of course does not mean that Koen is not entitiled to an opinion. Of course not, this is a rerview request and everyone may react to it. However, I, and I think most of us would appreciate it if this is done in a professional, polite and friendly manner. (btw wrt the other two post about the 3 conf/distro/include files I proposed to delete: two are gpe, and one is maemo. you may consider yourself to be the maintainer of the gpe recipes. I've clearly indicated why I wanted to remove them and you did not address any of my concerns and observations; also as I wrote before maintainership also comes with obligations. These files are clearly broken so it seems the maintainer has some work there.) Frans PS: I think this is also an excellent case why it is a good idea to identify the maintainer within the recipe/ _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
