I agree that we need to inform people about the correct way to submit patches. Multiple people have copied/pasted their patches into Jira issue descriptions. This is undesirable for a few different reasons. I couldn't find Kobayashi's patch or commits. The patch is here, didn't say it was committed: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-485 We seem to have issues with Jira notifications. I thought I had that working, sometime back…. --kevan -Andy

I do think there have been diversity questions raised. That's the issue. I don't understand this focus on license agreement. If we have contributors whose contributions merit their being offered to join the project as committers, then let's please discuss them and hold a vote. There is nothing holding this up… Can you point me to the code contributions that are mentioned? I can't locate the svn commits. When committing a patch from a contributor, the commit messages should indicate who a patch is coming from… Something like Commit patch from XXX. Adding support for foo I couldn't find a Jira for Sunil's Power patch? Also, the svn commit?

Re: November 2011 Board Report
Can you explain what is meant by: Finalize the license agreement requirements for new committers and accept them into the project. --kevan I changed this to: Work with the individuals who have already contributed code to Apache VCL and have expressed interest in becoming a committer. Assist them with the process of submitting the license agreement. Complete the process by conducting a vote on the vcl-private list. Also per Alan's comment, I removed the bullet referring to the addition of a new committer which occurred earlier this year. -Andy

So that we're clear -- submission of an ICLA/CLA is orthogonal to discussing the merits of an individual's contributions to the VCL project. We should be able to discuss their contributions, hold a committer vote (if we deem the contributions merit it), and ask someone to join the project -- even if they have not submitted an ICLA. An ICLA is required before an Apache svn login will be created. But that shouldn't hold up discussion of merits… The only time this process might be slowed down is if we know someone may not be willing/able to sign an ICLA. If that's the case, I'd like to see that discussed, also… ;-) --kevan
