Just joined the list, and wanted to say hi. I think you guys have a great thing going, this software has come closer to matching our needs as a web hosting provider than any others. Over the coming weeks or so, I will be making some changes to the code on our end to tweak it a bit, to try and make it work more like the way we want, and I will be in charge of development, and was hoping to be able to submit a patch here or there. I've never worked on an open source project before, and was kind of wondering what the process is for submitting a patch? Thanks, Mike |

I don't actively work on gcdb anymore, but I'll speak up, since the list is usually very very quiet. To send a patch, just send the diff file to the list, and explain what the patch provides. The best way is to try and seperate your patches by features, not sending one giant patch that does alot of little jobs. I'm glad to hear gcdb helps you out, keep letting us know how you are working with it!

Ahh I see. I'm somewhat familiar with the diff program, however i've never really used it, and am not sure what the process is for generating these patches.. let's take this scenario: I download the latest CVS code over the course of a week or so, I work on a particular feature, and feel that it is good, and ready to submit. What do I do from there? Is there a function of CVS that will compare my files to the latest code, or.. how do I know if someone has/hasn't worked on the same file as me in the mean time?

I would be interested in what you have planned. We have a list of features that we plan on implementing as well. Maybe we can rejuvinate the development/activity of GCDB by releasing some new code.
