Hi all,
Proposal:
Non-functional changes should be allowed without review by the libraries list. Such changes can be commited directly, if the commiter has access to the repo, or attached to a "please merge" ticket on the bug tracker.
+1 from me. I know I'd probably submit some minor documentation enhancements and the like if the process was a bit easier for such things.
Perhaps a slightly less drastic version of this could satisfy everybody. If the patch is committed directly, a note containing it and describing it, if only briefly, could be sent to the libraries list. Likewise, if a ticket is created, a short note can be sent to the libraries list pointing to the ticket. Still no need for discussion, formal approval or the like, but a subscriber to libraries can always speak up if they have a concern, and libraries subscribers can feel confident that they will remain at least as appraised of changes as before. Cheers, Sterl.
