What I was trying to say was that for each 'change' (could be big or small) the person working on that change needs to: - ensure Tomcat still builds with the changes applied (if you mess up the xml, the build will break) - provide a patch (could be 1 line, could be 1000 lines) - add the patch to Bugzilla - etc Mark > >> - change docs >> - build Tomcat to test changes >> - use svn to create a patch >> - create a Bugzilla entry for the patch >> - committer reviews and applies the pacth / suggests changes >> >> Usually after a series of good patches the committers will get fed up >> with applying your patches for you and will make you a committer so you >> can do you own commits. > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@tomcat.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@tomcat.apache.org > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@tomcat.apache.org
