Since a maintainer will look at it anyway before it's committed, and you are going to 're-roll' it as a v2 (which they will see) I wouldn't bother. I've been using 'escalated-review-request' for (a) ones I see that are just too hard for me, (b) if I personally think there's some outstanding issue with the patch that I can't solve. > > And should I remove them from the patch-review-hackers-list after I've > responded Yes please - if you remove it from that list, and you make yourself the owner then I hope we'll keep people co-ordinated! > > The patch changes all look reasonable to me, you've already done a lot: > Great, thanks!

Re: Coordinators for patch review session on Tuesday
Hi, Thanks for your reply, 1. Changing the tag to reviewed-looks-good It doesn't look like this worked. The way to do this is in the instructions are 4. 'Set a user tag' [0], probably the easiest way is to send an email (I do get funny results sometimes with my email client): Subject: setting usertag on 65938 user guix usertag 65938 + reviewed-looks-good quit The first line is important it has to be 'user guix' for it to appear on the patch review reports [1]. I think I messed up the instructions in the Wiki - you have to have a + in between the bug number and the tag you want to set (sorry about that). Please try again. Ah I got it this time. I was missing the 'user guix'. I didn't read the wiki and tried to look it up from the debbugs documentation. This is really just a way of signalling that reviews are happening - so trying to keep us in sync. The usertags we're using are: - patch-review-hackers-list - under-review - escalated-review-request - waiting-on-contributor - reviewed-looks-good If I change the patch quite a lot, should I mark it as 'escalated-review-request' instead of 'reviewed-looks-good'? And should I remove them from the patch-review-hackers-list after I've responded The patch changes all look reasonable to me, you've already done a lot: Great, thanks! Good to know I'm doing things vaguely right! 1. You should add a reviewed-by trailer: Reviews are contributions from our community (and work!) so we should recognise them and add trailers. It also helps the maintainer know who did the review and therefore the level of confidence. Basically just add 'Reviewed-by: A Person - [2] Sure, do you want me resubmit these patches to add that? It looks like your updated patch retriggered QA, so if you look here and the foolow the Data Service link on the right you can see it's building it: https://qa.guix.gnu.org/issue/65938 The last step will be for a maintainer to see that it's built correctly, see your review and to apply it - great job for a first patch review! Wonderful! The first of many, I'm hoping. Kind regards, Christina

Re: Coordinators for patch review session on Tuesday
Hi, This is just to say that I went to review [2], but ended up making the changes myself, so I've submitted modified patches for those packages. Hopefully they're of a quality that's worth pushing. I'm going to be busy this weekend, but I'll see if I get time to do some reviewing later on. It's actually quite fun!

Re: Coordinators for patch review session on Tuesday
Hi Steve, I just wanted to say that I enjoyed the first one of these and I'm looking forward to today's session. I did want to go to the last session, but I lost track of time and missed it! I'm a new contributor who's only sent a few patches up, but these sessions have been helpful for making contributing feel less intimidating. I haven't quite felt comfortable enough to review any patches on my own, so I do like the idea of pair-reviewing patches with someone who's a bit more experienced. See you this evening!
