Your mentor has does NOT give you the right to do this w/o an OK'ed by the maintainer. I think Will has been around here enough he doesn't need to be considered a mentee any longer? Or is this something you're going to hold over his head forever. > remove the concept of a 'maintainer' of our make. there really isn't a > need for any one committer to hold an exclusive lock or serve as a filter > for this code. Oh REALLY?!?!? Since Will took over, I now have someone to assign make(1) PRs to. He is also working closely with Mark Espie / OpenBSD to merge our make with theirs (and NetBSD's). This is PRECISELY the type of work that does not get done w/o a maintainer because it isn't sexy nor fun. As someone more senior than you around here, I think I'll back out your commit. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org) GNU is Not Unix / Linux Is Not UniX To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
