Hi There, Thanks for taking the time to post here and share your thoughts, while I don't necessarily agree with everything you've mentioned, I appreciate that you took the time to say it. One point I'd like to really highlight is: "One adjustment coming from products like ColdFusion is to recognize Ruby, and Rails as open-source communities. Rather than complain about the dreaded wontfix tickets, we can get involved by submitting and testing patches, and bringing them to the core teams' attention through the mailing list. Become a collaborator. " This is great advice, especially for people coming from a 'big vendor' background!. I wonder if I could suggest considering it when you look at ticket 6000. While this patch no longer applies cleanly, if you took the time to rebase it against trunk and resubmit it, I'm sure we'd be happy to apply it. Don't assume we're actively disregarding patches that are in the tracker, we're on top of the reviewed patches list and spend a lot of time trying to stay there. The steps for patch reviews are listed at http://dev.rubyonrails.org/, people here would be happy to help out, as would the guys in #rails-contrib. Thanks again. -- Cheers Koz --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Core" group.
