Great stuff, we only exist for a week and already the first improvements
to doc's and code are coming in.
You (and all other's) can help even more by doing the
following:
# make a copy of the whole trhee
cp -r xerces xerces.orig
# make your changes
cd xerces/....
vi ...
# make a diff
diff -c3 -r xerces.orig xerces > patch
# and email the patch :-) together with why and
# what you changed :-)
Or if you have used anonymous CVS
# make sure you have the last version
cvs update
# make your changes
cd xerces/...
vi ....
# and make a diff
cvs diff > patch
# and email the patch :-) with a small description
# of what and why. Preferably NOT as an attachement.
And that is it. Regardless of wether you are hacking code or doc's, this
is _the_ way to make sure it ends up in the next release. If you do _NOT_
want to be mentioned in the contributor's/STATUS file, make sure you say
so. In that case you are kept anonymous.
There is a punishment if you send patches too often.... as you then end up
with direct commit access :-)
