We are no down to a patch count of 186. With the new patches that came in the last two days that makes 100 patches that are gone. Most of them had already been applied or superseded by other patches and often were just missing a status update. For the outstanding patches I see three big groups which need our attention: 1) Core/class patches: It would be great if some people more familiar with the core internals of OE could have a look at them and discuss outstanding issues or apply them. 2) Stable/2009 patches: We still have patches sitting in patchwork for the stable branch. It would be great if they also could get some attention, not only patches for master. 3) Outdated patches: We have patches reaching as far back as 2009. This needs improvement. Besides making sure that patches are getting review in a timely manner and really get applied when already acked we should think about patches that do not get and feedback at all. As a side note the patchwork installation will move to our OSUOSL server. The new installation will not hold the old patch history we have right now. This should be taken as motivation to clean up the rest we have in there. :) I have mixed feeling after this weekend. On the one hand we got rid of quite some outstanding stuff on the other hand most of the changes have been updates on the patch status and finding out if they have already been applied. Also only a handfull people could get motivated to help. For the next incarnation of such a weekend (I would aim for early december after the first release was tagged) it would be great if more people could join the fun. regards Stefan Schmidt _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
