Re: [eclipse-pmc] contributed keyword





Personally, I like the most general definition. Even if there isn't a legal
requirement for some of these, I like giving credit to people for the work
they contribute, regardless of the area it's in.

Now that we know what a non-committer is, can we define what a contribution
is ?

Does it include:

1. a change to a SDK project ?
Obviously yes :-)

2. a change to a doc project ?
In the last arch call, we said yes as well

3. a change to a test project ?
I would say yes, but what do you think ?

4. a change to a web project ?
I'm not sure about this one, What do you think ?

5. a change to a non-SDK project (e.g. the releng projects are not included
in the SDK) ?
I would say yes, but what do you think ?

Or should we say that any change committed to the CVS repository related
the Eclipse Project is a contribution ?

Good, this means that inactive commiters don't get the 'contributed'
keyword as they are still single person commiters on that project.

Who they work for is irrelevant. The important question is:
"Were they committers to the Eclipse SDK project when they contributed the
patch ?"
If answer is no, then use the "contributed" keyword.

Just wanted to get clarification about committers that no longer actively
work on the Eclipse Project. I heard different opinions about that issue
during the call e.g. non-active committers should also get the
'contributed' keyword. However, such committers that no longer work for us,
signed the single person committer agreement and they are still registered
as committers and as far as I know they also have the corresponding
permission on the server and bugzilla.

Can you please clarify. Thanks


Dani
