Submitted By: This is when someone OTHER THEN YOU sends in the code. Reviewed By: This is when someone OTHER THEN YOU reviews the code. If someone else submitted the code it is assumed that you reviewed it before you committed it. Obtained From: This is when you grab software from OTHER REPOSITORIES. This will never refer to a person, ever ever ever. OpenBSD, NetBSD, some PD cd you found, whatever, this is software from a thing not a person. If you wrote and are committing the code, you need _nothing_. These are only when a 3rd party (vendor or person) is involved and we need to give credit. While I'm here, when refering to someone with a freefall account, it is redundant to use the full name, for instance. Use: Submitted By: billf, jkh as opposed to Submitted By: Bill Fumerola , Jordan K. Hubbard However, when refering to someone outside of the FreeBSD.org domain the above format of First Name or FAMILYNAME personalname is the only method to use. Someone should SGMLize or include the above in new committer documents. -- - bill fumerola - billf@chc-chimes.com - BF1560 - computer horizons corp - - ph:(800) 252-2421 - bfumerol@computerhorizons.com - billf@FreeBSD.org - To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
