David is right. Please add yourself. We didn't have this rule in the
past, but from now on we should do this. And your work, testing,
reporting, fixing, retesting and discussing solutions for the various
issues you found are really appreciated. What seem like simple bugs to
you are hairy incomprehensible multi-byte character encoding issues to
others.

Cheers,

Mark

New GNU Classpath developer Gary Benson

2005-11-18 Thread Mark Wielaard
Hi all,

As you probably already noticed by reading classpath-patches Gary has
been working on the security framework. And has written several mauve
tests to back up his patches. He now has direct developer access to
speed up his work.

Gary, here are the rules:

The first rule of GNU Classpath is - you do not talk about GNU
Classpath, you write code. The second rule of Fight Club is -
you DO NOT talk about GNU Classpath, you write code. Third rule
of GNU Classpath, someone yells stop!, goes limp, taps out, your
patch is NOT approved. Fourth rule, a bug report is between just
two people, the reporter and the fixer. Fifth rule, one commit
at a time, or get CVS merge conflicts. Sixth rule, no shirt, no
shoes, just bare ASCII source. Seventh rule, fixes will go in as
long as they have to. And the eighth and final rule, if this is
your first night at GNU Classpath, you have to patch the AUTHORS
file. (*)

Please post a patch and ChangeLog entry to classpath-patches to add
yourself to the AUTHORS file. You can consider that patch pre-approved
of course.

Thanks,

Mark

(*) More formal rules are of course in the GNU Classpath Hackers guide:
