[dsdp-tm-dev] News on IP Log

["Oberhuber, Martin" <Martin.Oberhuber@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

TM Committers,

 

I have good news for you: The Automatic IP Log Generation [1]

is now finally working for our project as well. The generated log [2]

looks good enough, that we can finally end our triple bookkeeping!

 

I have updated the Committer Howto [3] to explain what this

means for us:

• No more "contributed" keyword.
• No more editing the "tm-log.csv" file.
• Only add the iplog+ flag at the attachment holding the contribution.
  You do this exactly when the patch is committed. Strive for also
  marking the bug FIXED, and doing follow-up work on additional
  cloned bugs.
• In very rare cases (incoming contribution not as patch but as comment on bugzilla), flag the whole bugzilla item with iplog+.

Please continue asking contributors to put our "Legal Message" [3]

on a bugzilla comment to clarify that they are contributing under

EPL (+ EDL for the TCF Agent) -  I have summarized all this in our

committer howto [3].

 

I hope that you'll enjoy this great simplification just as much as I do.

Please be careful and don't forget the iplog+ flag since this is now our

ONLY means of tracking IP.
