To all GDB committers

To all GDB committers

[Joel Brobecker]

Hello everyone,

Since we now have patch champions, a couple of us are tracking the
patches sent to the GDB mailing list, and try to make sure that none
of them fall through the cracks.

To help us in our job, would you mind always sending a confirmation
that a given patch has been committed, please? In particular, it would
be very helpful for patches that you send saying that you "will commit
in a few days pending objections".

Thanks a lot,

Joel, if it would be useful to you or the gdb folks, i'm happy to
attempt to set up a patch queue for gdb like the one we have for gcc:

Thanks Daniel. I think I'll keep my gdb-patches mailbox as my list of
patches for now. The system above looks really nice, especially with
the colors. But I like the simplicity of keeping email in my box until
the patch is reviewed.

Thanks again,

Okay.
My offer remains open if you ever get overwhelmed (which is more or less
what happened with GCC.  But I think our patch submission rate is *much*
higher than GDB's right now)

FWIW, I like the idea that I would be able to see that my patch hasn't 
fallen through the cracks.

Right now I have 2 outstanding unreviewed, and, no doubt, you and/or 
Daniel knew that, but how can I tell?

(I also have two reviewed and not approved, which I need to sort out, 
but that's another story.)

I like this idea too.  Wiki might also be a good tool for our co-work.
