Just a note from one of those who are happy to contribute without commit rights...
If you want pull-requests to keep coming in, it is very important that you monitor and respond to those pull-requests that do come in. I see I am not the only one who submitted a pull-request a long time ago and still have no feedback or comments on it at all. 22 open requests on Drools. Many of them are old and have no comments: https://github.com/droolsjbpm/drools/pulls Best regards, Mattias ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Mark Proctor" <mproc...@codehaus.org> > To: "Rules Dev List" <rules-dev@lists.jboss.org> > Sent: Thursday, 14 February, 2013 4:43:19 PM > Subject: Re: [rules-dev] Github commit rights cleanup > > On 14 Feb 2013, at 14:18, Esteban Aliverti < > esteban.alive...@gmail.com > wrote: > > Since the time we started using github I've always preferred the > pull-request mechanism instead of the direct commit.
