Update: I have added 2 patches, 10 feature requests, and 12 bug
reports to the tracker. I re-read or skimmed about 500 emails to do
this, so it is likely I missed something, or added a bug that has
already been fixed. My apologies in advance.
I. What to do with the stuff on the tracker list
If you have a fix for a bug or an implementation for a feature, add a
new patch for it. Maybe discuss your approach a little first, if it's
tricky.
Niels -- I haven't done any triage on the lists yet. Some of the
things listed should get fixed in 1.3; some are probably 1.4
showstoppers; and some can probably wait till 1.5 or later.
II. Adding new stuff to the list.
Every bug or feature request or patch that I know about is on the
tracker now. If you have a bug or feature request or patch that
*isn't* there, then please do the following:
- Double-check that I didn't add it to one of the lists.
- Confirm that the bug still exists.
- Verify that the bug is really a bug
- Come up with some test code to elicit the buggy behavior, if
you possibly can. (If you are sure that the code is wrong, but
you can't actually write code to provoke the bad behavior that
you're sure is happening, then maybe you haven't really
understood the code. Ask on the list maybe?)
- Submit it to the tracker.
[If this sounds like too much work, just bounce me an email saying
"hey, you missed this one!"]
II. How to find out about new tracker entries
There's a mailing list at [EMAIL PROTECTED]; you can
subscribe here:
https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/levent-tracker
III. Other stuff you should know, and which should probably go on the
webpage.
The commits list is here:
https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/levent-commits
The SVN repository is here:
https://levent.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/levent
Things that you might want to check out of it are:
https://levent.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/levent/trunk/libevent
https://levent.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/levent/branches/patches-1.3/libevent
Now, it's really time for me to sleep.
peace, all.
