... okay, so the subject is probably broad and vague. But a bunch of people have complained about participation, specifically about how much *process* is involved in putting back, and how hard it is for external developers to go through the sponsor process. [begin shameless plug for my project] I encourage you to look at the SCM Migration project[1] we're working on. 1. It's being openly developed (heck, I think Rich has done more to it than I have) 2. It's a huge (nay, necessary) step in moving the gate to be external, which will make the process better (though some elements of the sponsor process will still be around until we solve the larger Bugster & RTI problems) 3. It's fairly easy to help out.... and you'll be doing a huge service to the OpenSolaris community. 4. We could use help, both technical and non-technical (we could use help in writing up training documents, migration/transition, etc.) [end shameless plug] The task list is here: http://www.genunix.org/wiki/index.php/SCMMigrationTasks
That's excellent! Wouldn't it be good if all projects (and indeed communities at a more general level) had such a "what help we need" list? -- -Peter Tribble http://www.petertribble.co.uk/ - http://ptribble.blogspot.com/
