Re: [MO-java-users] Contribution of enhancements to MockDatabaseMetaData class

[Jeff M. <je...@cu...>]

Happy to accept anything anyones got to offer. The general proceddure
for submissions is to create a patch files

cvs diff -u > diff.txt

and send it into the dev list with any new files you have. Someone will
then look at it and either commit it straight away, commit it with minor
alterations or provide feedback as to more significant changes that need
to be made before it's commited.

As a little note smaller patches submitted more frequently are easier
for us to intergrate and six months of work in one huge patch file
(release early, release often. small iterations...)
