A little update on submitting patches

[Björn Gustavsson]

There is now a basic wiki page on-line about submitting patches:

      http://wiki.github.com/erlang/otp/submitting-patches

It will be updated with more information and guidelines.

We will merge all patches to the branch 'pu' ("proposed updates")
so that we will have all proposed patches in one place.

As we review patches, patches may graduate and be included
in the development branch for the next release (ccase/r13b04_dev).

You should not base any branches on 'pu', since it will be
rewinded very often as patches graduate or an initial patch is
replaced with an improved version.

At the moment, 4 patch series (branches) have been merged
to the 'pu' branch.

Should I use this as an occasion to re-submit patches that have only received
a general aknowledgement a while ago, and never got merged ? We have a couple
of those that we use in production, and would like to either see them merged,
or work around the issues in our application code instead of maintaining a
patched erlang.

Yes, that is a good idea.

The [hidden email] address given on that page doesn't seem to be
working at present:

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at cslab.ericsson.net.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

<[hidden email]>:
Sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.1.1)

-----------------------------------
Though at least qmail was apologetic about it :)

Cheers,

Bernard

It was supposed to be [hidden email] (the email address
of this mailing list). I have corrected the wiki page.

Thanks for reporting it.
