Hi, Isn't it possible to ignore these patches in stackalytics? If the motivation is to look better there, this would solve the problem.

Technical solutions to social problems rarely do more than increase complexity for everyone involved. Communication, documentation and education are likely our best options here, but I still question the degree to which the people pushing these sorts of contributions will actually get the message since it's obvious they aren't engaging meaningfully with the community before attempting to contribute. Could demographic profiling help us figure out the primary motivation (whether it's testing the waters, stats padding or employers pushing their staff to contribute patches before they've had time to actually assimilate our community norms and expectations)? -- Jeremy Stanley __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: [email protected]?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
