So, here is a request to produce a sensible web page for inclusion under http://www.freebsd.org/internal with these guidelines. =20 Please see text below. thanks, Wilko In order to streamline the commit bit request process somewhat please follow the following guidelines when approaching core@ with a request: - Apart from the name of the proposed committer please also supply his/her email address; - If you are not mentoring the proposed committer yourself please arrange for one before approaching core; - It is worthwhile to consult the resident guru/maintainer on the area the new committer will start to work on; Please state whether you have done so, or why you haven't. - A mentor should 'fit' the area a new committer will start to work on. E.g. a new committer working on networking in general is not well ser= ved by a CAM-specialist as mentor. Of course a good generalist mentor=20 who can guide the mentee to find the right gurus for review is also acceptable; - Consider time zones when finding a mentor. For practical reasons mentor and mentee being awake at roughly the same times often helps. This is not a strict requirement, rather it serves as a=20 - Please provide background info on prior work etc so that core can get a good idea of the proposed. - Core reserves the right to push back on voting until the sponsor brings a case that reasonably adheres to the guidelines above. --=20 | / o / /_ _ FreeBSD core team secretary |/|/ / / /( (_) Bulte wilko@FreeBSD.org --CE+1k2dSO48ffgeK Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 5.0i for non-commercial use MessageID: tVQpjQ0OL/V+XvIWWjy+7mIY/v+UwnDG Comment: Requires PGP version 2.6 or later. iQCVAwUBPXEE2vymwUj/iuMFAQFboQP+K2G9TDv3X7G/GCdzkvUDyZkokEihp6VC 00K3oLhwI0e6Yl+gLFKkSXdQI/LL1orp8gHEduliEN826L8liQlIH4gEEG/L5u5x zSZgSDeGTdz6e2C9rYCgRqy2wSShHQsxxeUJlkKle1SuvxzbhI+KcJ8f1A7eVToa Fya4Z3c79L8= =oQTh -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --CE+1k2dSO48ffgeK-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
