It's really up to each project to make it easy/hard to accept contributions. I don't see what outsiders could do to change that, other than to ask to become an insider.
Ah, now I see what you're saying. I actually agree. My idea is to encourage and default to w/r, not impose it. I assume that many projects are read-only, not because of a desire of the maintainer, but just because that's the default in SqS. Why not default to r/w, making life easier for the community, and admins can select read-only if they want. Yanni Chiu wrote:
An idea comes to mind though. Maybe a "maintenance" group could be created. Members of the maintenance group would have write permissions to all projects. They would only submit code to make things work on different platforms, but would not wildly re-factor, change the design, add features, etc. That way, the admin/dev's would still maintain "control" of their project, but get help from the maintenance crew.
Sounds interesting. Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Community-Development-a-suggestion-tp2224670p2225365.h... Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
