OSS contributions is a very-well researched area and if your are contributing actively to the public goods, understading human capital is essential. The sustainability of open source communities relies on developers continuous voluntary contributions, that's why packages are made public to the community of users-developers.
If you are continuously questioning intrinsinc or extrinsic motivators (as happened in a Smalltalk spanish mailing list) and putting inhibitors to contributing, basically you are promoting parallel branches. An example of such exclusion behavior is not considering an one-time contributor who are not involved in Pharo. Not all developers have time to learn and become familiar with the community formal or informal policies. A team working in a package (widely used by a community, and so, "Community Package") should not exclude contributions for the sake of commiter's popularity or frequency of team participation. > > >> Packages part of pharo core are in in Pharo team in smalltalkhub >> Packages part of pharo extras are un PharoExtras team in smalltalkhub >> >> > I cannot find PharoExtras in SmalltalkHub. > > > http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~PharoExtras > > Thanks, it doesn't get listed when typing in the search toolbar. > Can I find from within image if a package belongs to Pharo or PharoExtras? > > > easy: if is a modification/addendum to the core, it goes to Pharo, if is > an external package (and part of the projects that we maintain), is > PharoExtras. > > Mmm, that's not what I asked :) > > > That information should be more visible somewhere. > > > probably, at least the links to smalltalkhub teams should be somewhere > visible. > but you know, time, etc., etc. :) > > Ok > > > >> we, as core pharo developers take responsibility over the packages that >> resides there, and of course any contribution is welcome. >> >> For the stuff in Pharo team, you need to work in the form of “Issue >> report” and “SLICE provider”. >> For the stuff in PharoExtras, you can provide just the package updates + >> the *updated* configuration. >> >> All PharoExtras projects should have a jenkins job in >> https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/? >> And you should take care that job is green after you commit your packages. >> >> For contribute in any of the teams, Pharo and PharoExtras you need to be >> added as team member, and that can be done just requiting it in pharo-dev >> list (which, btw, is a better place for this discussion). >> >> > Ok, thanks. > > Hernán > > > >> Esteban >> >> On 24 Dec 2013, at 13:57, Hernán Morales Durand <hernan.mora...@gmail.com> >> wrote: >> >> > El 24/12/2013 9:06, Esteban Lorenzano escribió: >> >> >> >> On 24 Dec 2013, at 12:34, Hernán Morales Durand < >> hernan.mora...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> >> >>> I am interested in how to proceed about community packages.
