laurent I did a pass on the wiki and I suggest that we removed it from the wiki and put it on the book and ideally in the help :) Stef On Jul 6, 2010, at 9:48 AM, laurent laffont wrote:
Hi,
I've seen http://book.pharo-project.org/book/Contribute
Should we Cut / Paste from google project's wiki ? (So we have only one source of documentation, that can be later integrated to HelpSystem).
Cheers,
Laurent Laffont

Ok,
================ Here: "First and foremost, you must be aware that the Pharo project only accepts code published under the MIT license. By publishing your code in the SqueakSource Pharo or PharoInbox repositories, you are agreeing to this condition. With that out of the way, here are the steps to submit your contributions. "
Please provide a link which explain the implications of code published under the MIT license. Or better, a little comparison table between different licensing schemes.
================ Here: "If your change is directly related to a Mantis report, add the label "Type-Mantis" and add the Mantis ticket number in front of the subject. Else choose another appropriate label "
Please clarify or link to. Manits is the bugs.squeak.org right? It should be named by what it is, and not by the tool which is used for bug tracking (if they change their tool 10 times, you must update the page 10 times)
================ Here: "Announce your contribution by sending a mail to the mailing list and herewith ask to have somebody review your change. This person should change the state of the issue to "Verified". "
Provide a link to the mailing list. Note "herewith" is most used and understood as a legal term.
================ Here: "For complex changes use a slice since there is a much better merging support. "
What is a complex change? (please include this information in the page too)
================ "Prepare a changeset with your changes. File it out. Important: Put your Full name instead of your initials, it will help up to contact you as it is often necessary. Do not use space and only alphabetical characters. "
1) This is killing more than 50% of the habitants of the world :) What happens with contributors without latin alphabet? how they setup their system? (that should be included)
2) What is the problem with using space? If it is a limitation imposed by a tool then the tool should be responsible of trimming all blanks, not the users.
3) How do you distinguish between two John Smith? And how do you contact contributors? (I've never wrote my e-mail or gmail user name in a Pharo image).
4) Some brief explanation on how to create a changeset would be nice.
================ Finally, this information should be in all images. Better, provide a wizard to guide this process, it sounds like a nice excercise to do a standard window flow with Morphic.
Cheers,
Hernán
