All,
It's sounding like folks would prefer keeing the master contributors
list up to date, to adding a bunch of names to the release notes.
So, then, I have a proposal for criteria for getting on the contributors
list via patch review:
- substantial, deep review of at least one patch (including detailed
code review and possible corrections)
- "functionality" reviews of at least 3 patches, including full
write-ups (not just "it compiled, seems to work").
Kibitz as you may, but please don't try to make these criteria more
*complicated*, because there's no way we'll ever keep track.
Note that updating the contributor list in the past has been slow due to
lack of technology and process; if it's our way forward, then I'll apply
myself to that problem.
