Just want to add my two cents. Based on my own experience, I think a patch that targets to fix a platform-specific problem but ends up making changes in platform-independent code, often means either the fix is problematic or a new bug/test case needs to be created for the independent part only.

We've never formalized this, but I believe that patches tagged with a particular platform name such as [Qt] Add new API for fluffy bunnies should be limited to one particular platform's code. If the patch changes more than a trivial bit of platform-independent code, even if the change is only for the benefit of a signle platform, I suggest we not use the platform name prefix. -- Darin _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev
