----------------------------------------
Hi Patrick,
The "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. " is not accurate in this case.
James and I are are bother Apache committers and Members, as such when we
commit code to the ASF repository like what James had done, and like when you
do when you commit code to zookeeper trunk, a license is granted to the ASF.
The jira feature is really only there to be able to accept code from folks who
have not filed an ICLA with the ASF.
Another way to view this development model is as if we were ZooKeeper
committers who do not commit to trunk but which develop new features and bug
fixes in development branches. This model of development is use extensively in
projects who are adverse to destabilizing the trunk. They develop and test new
features in a branch and then merge back once folks are happy with it.
This model is also outlined at [Rules for
Revolutionaries|http://incubator.apache.org/learn/rules-for-revolutionaries.html]

> 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.
