[Gaim-cabal] Promote sadrul to full developer?

[Mark D. <ma...@ki...>]

Hey, how do people feel about officially promoting sadrul to full developer
status?  He's basically already there, except for the recognition.  I mean, I
guess he doesn't change the Gaim core or gtk code very often anymore, but he
is basically the lead dev for gnt Gaim.

I was against giving him CVS access many moons ago because I felt like some of
his patches were shots in the dark, and I still get that vibe a little bit...
but I think he's done a lot of good work, and we could use more active devs.

What do other people think?

Me too. I've been considering him "full developer." I guess he's not
in the About Box or contactinfo.php or anything, though. I'm for it.

-s.

Oh look, sadrul is on this mailing list.  I'm glad I didn't say anything
negative :-)

Thanks to everyone for your support! I really appreciate it. I do sometimes
shoot in the dark. I think I'll try to keep that in check :)

I wouldn't mind if you did. I would like to be told when I do something
wrong ;)

Naturally someone in charge of a major component should be a full
developer.  Add him to the about and contactinfo :-)
