[Developers] Re: new cactus mailing list

[Tom Goodale]

Hi,

this list should hopefully make it easier to track patches.  Please don't 
post anything other than patches to the list - discussion should remain on 
this mailing list.

If you have outstanding patches it would be good if you could resend them 
to the new list, especially if the patch was sent more than a month ago. 
I will try not to drop any of the patches I have already received, but if 
you don't see response, please send me a mail, or resend the patch to the 
new list.

As ever, patches should try to address one problem/feature, and cosmetic 
patches should be distinct from real changes, similarly bug fixes should 
be distinct from new features where possible.

When you post a patch, please include a description of what the patch 
does, suitable for a CVS commit message.

Cheers,

Tom
