Distribution quote of the week
[Posted February 29, 2012 by ris]
My intuition (based on anecdote from non-Ubuntu-y developer friends
and not real data) is that most people just want to dump patches on
us. Furthermore, if they did want to do it all themselves, they're the
sort of person likely to be a repeat contributor anyway, so at worst
they'd only get "cheated" the first time and would have additional
opportunities to do it all themselves later.
IME, people are pleasantly surprised when they drop a patch on [LaunchPad] and
that results in a package getting fixed; I've never heard of someone
being disappointed they didn't have to go through another round of
review.
