Re: [PATCH] Fix typo in User's Guide

Hello Simon, If you look at this wikipage [1], it still says we can contribute using the `git send-email` to ghc-devs. Now I know you like for people to create tickets for bug fixes. But what about really tiny documentation patches? The WorkingConventions [2] page only mentions how to submit bugfixes and new feature patches. So should I still use the instructions at [1] or is there some information missing in the wiki? Or should I really create a ticket for tiny patches?

Thanks. the instructions are really out of date. Now that so many of us work on GHC, it's too easy for an email to get lost. Trac is better. I'll update the instructions!

Sure, here it is http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8505

Should every bug fix have an associated ticket? Because from the instructions on Trac http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/WorkingConventions/FixingBugs, I got the impression that for quick fixes it was not necessary to create a ticket.

Cheers,

Pedro Rodrigues

could you file a ticket on trac with the patch?
