Re: cvs repository

[Joe C. <jo...@sw...>]

Got a mouse in your pocket, Ben?  Who is this 'we' you keep talking about?

Jamie has already said that patches go through him...there's no use 
having a public CVS if patches always go through our benevolent leader 
anyway (ever fetched a CVS snapshot of the Linux kernel--no?  Why not?). 
  Webmin is, currently, and may always be a one man show.  Jamie has 
done a marvellous job making Webmin extensible and modifiable without 
having everyone able to change the core parts of the package--this makes 
sense in a lot of way, and because that's the way Jamie likes it, it's 
the way it's got to be.

 From my time on the Webmin mailing lists, I can say that I think you 
will find, he is happy to accept patches that fix problems.  Bug reports 
will also probably find an eager ear.  Complaints of semantic or web 
design tastes and sensibilities are generally less eagerly received.

Just my .02.
