Who would I talk to about getting commit access to w32api? I have submitted numerous patches in the past to Chris Sutcliffe and a few through sf.net's patch tracker, with none being rejected to date. Thanks! Brandon Sneed |

Hey Brandon, > Who would I talk to about getting commit access to w32api?

Since the w32api repository is on the sourceware site, you need to request access from them. When I was given access Earnie authorized it (from what I remember). I don't believe that I can authorize access, I believe it needs to be Earnie or Keith (can you guys confirm)? Chris -- Chris Sutcliffe http://emergedesktop.org |

Ultimately, it is Christopher Faylor who controls it; I'm not sure who he will accept as referees. I believe either Earnie or myself should be acceptable; not sure about you Chris, but I am happy for Brandon to have commit access, as long as you don't object. Brandon, unless you already have an account at sourceware.org, or at gcc.gnu.org or cygwin.com, you need to complete the online form at: http://sourceware.org/cgi-bin/pdw/ps_form.cgi Select Cygwin as the project for which you would like access, and cite my e-mail address for person approving. It may take Christopher a few days to deal with your request, so please be patient. Regards, Keith. |

I've got no objections, I trust Brandon. - snip - > Understood.

I don't think there is a normal process. ;) Having committed previous patches from you, I'm comfortable that you know the proper format of the ChangeLog in terms of detailing all the changes. As Keith mentioned, just please don't commit all your changes in one massive commit, perhaps split them in to logical units if at all possible. Cheers!

As we look forward to seeing them :-) But please don't rush the=20 process. Keep the commits to manageable sizes, and at a manageable=20 frequency; also, be sure to record everything in the ChangeLogs, with=20 the proper level of detail, as defined in the GNU Coding Standards: http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Change-Logs.html Regards, Keith. |
