I don't understand. If you work hard to write good log message and actually did it, you will not receive such remark. Remembering what I sent you in reply to commit mail, do you have felt them often rude? What other way should I do in that case to ask you not to make same problem again? >> Matthieu Casanova wrote: >>> 2012/1/13 Kazutoshi Satoda<k_s...@f2...> >>>> Insufficient log messages can cause repeated question later like this. >>>> Note that this is a quite lucky case; the question was posted on >>>> jedit-devel in time, and you still remember about the discussion. >>>> Consider what happens if a potential new developer got the question >>>> several months later. >>> >>> A new developper should try to make something useful, not questionning >>> everything. >> >> Questions are often required to make something useful. >> > The fact is that we don't have new developpers for the core. I'm afraid of that there are people, for example, who start straggling in core, got lost on a questionable change, and silently stop working on that. As you know we want new developers so I think we should avoid such case, don't you? -- k_satoda |
