nbjoergdanmcd: I don't have an account :)
-
tsoomenbjoerg illumos.org account should do

-
dangergrrlI am having a machine donated to me by a friend expressly for illumos development but my client wants to pay for it because it will replace my current illumos machine that he needs to run windows or linux
-
dangergrrland yes, i have been more a debugger than a developer, I promise this will improve
-
dangergrrlanyway we are both fans of Solaris as the only unix standing besides AIX and illumos and bsd are the only unix derivatives still standing
-
dangergrrland even ibm doesn't use AIX for their supercomputers, who would, it's incomprehensible
-
dangergrrlI don't know actually how to request code review though
-
dangergrrli didn't make my own git tree and probably should have?
-
dangergrrltbh, git is more complex than sccs or rcs and i get confused
-
andyfI'd start by reading through illumos.org/docs/contributing
-
andyfThat links through to illumos.org/docs/contributing/gerrit which describes the code review system that's used
-
dangergrrldanke!
-
andyfbut the whole guide is useful for setting the scene etc.
-
dangergrrlokay, i adopted a defect a while ago
-
dangergrrlasnd if i am receiving a machine FOR this project, i should actually push code
-
dangergrrland yes, i'm polylingual, i can't read sanskrit or arabic at all though or really anything using non latin characters, maybe runes a bit
-
dangergrrlandyf, I took possession of a low priority bug over a year ago (shame) and just never finished it
-
dangergrrlbut noone else wanted to fix yacc for parallel builds
-
dangergrrlI'm not sure it's an actual problem in practice
-
andyfEither way taking something small and working through the contribution process is a great place to start.
-
dangergrrlindeed and i am used to working for corporations who don't really care
-
dangergrrlSCO didn't
-
dangergrrlanyway if i am accepting donations from friends i should actually puch my code
