Looks absolutely sensible to me. I would expand a bit on the initial idea of being very open. For example, I would add that there were "over nine thousand" patches being sent and one hand would be fine for counting the rejected ones. I'd also add some links to how to contribute, the github project - again, to "show" the fact that rsyslog is open to contributions. Even contributions that make other contributions easier, like restructuring docs, automatically convert them to/from RST, etc.
All that said, I think the general idea is clear, and it promotes the ASL thing which I bet 99% are unaware of. And rsyslog's modularity, which also is somewhat unclear to most, I believe. 2013/12/13 Rainer Gerhards <[email protected]> > I tried to explain how easy it is to contribute.. but not sure if it looks > more frightning than not saying anything.
