JIRA Patches??

[Michael Imhof]

We're a small company in Switzerland and we're using OfBiz in 2 projects (will be one more in a month!!). Because we had to change some OfBiz implementation (bugfixing or extensions) we would like to give this back to the community.
It's in our interest, that this changes are flowing into the current OfBiz version. I posted 5 bugfixes and 1 change to the JIRA on February 22nd but I got no feedback since now.
(The issues are: OFBIZ-742, OFBIZ-743, OFBIZ-744, OFBIZ-745, OFBIZ-746, OFBIZ-747)

Are my issues still on the run??
How long does it takes in average for an issue to flow into the current OfBiz version?

To improve your chances and the general response time, read and follow the recommendations here:

http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBADMIN/OFBiz+Contributors+Best+Practices

Specifically as I've read some of your recent emails and issues a few things come to mind:

1. way less drama and sensationalism
2. more details and less interpretation about what you are observing and how it is different from what you expect
3. use patches (typing "svn diff > mychanges.patch" or the equivalent in a GUI SVN client is pretty easy)

In general, we will get to things as we can and/or as they are important to committers and/or as other contributors test, review, and vote for the changes.

Hi David,
just a few remarks to the a the points...

1. way less drama and sensationalism
That's me:-)

2. more details and less interpretation about what you are observing and how it is different from what you expect
Its quit easier to explain a patch when I explain my observation and what I expect.
Like this, you as a committer could understand my intention better.

Michael
