---------------------------------------
Hi James -- I understand where you are coming from and we appreciate the
effort, but regarding use of SVN for patch submission - I'm afraid this is not
acceptable. Notice on the "attach patch" JIRA page that it has the " Grant
license to ASF for inclusion in ASF works .... " option. This has to be checked
for us to consider a patch for inclusion.
Also consider that we have limited resources/time and need to follow the
designated patch process in order to optimize around the limited set of core
reviewers/commiters we have relative to the community at large.
(if you think you've got it bad checkout some of the hadoop examples like:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3412)
What I'd suggest is that you "overwrite" the existing patch when submitting an
update. If you upload a file with the same name the old version of the file
_is_ still available in the JIRA, and the new file will take it's place. (I
need to update the wiki with this, just haven't gotten around to it - ok just
added near the end of the "contributing your work section", thanks)
A bit less important but wanted to mention the naming scheme defined on the
following page (creating a patch section):
http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/ZooKeeper/HowToContribute
ZOOKEEPER-#.patch
This helps reviewers/committers keep all the patches straight. :-)

> Here's a patch which adds a little WriteLock helper class for performing
> leader elections or creating exclusive locks in some directory znode. Note
> its an early cut; am sure we can improve it over time. The aim is to avoid
> folks having to use the low level ZK stuff but provide a simpler high level
> abstraction.
