Just A Summary : Tag gloating, everything about gloating http://www.bofh.org.uk/articles/tag/gloating.rss en-us 40 Piers Cawley Practices Punditry Bwah hah ha ha! <p>This evening, I acquired a commit bit for the <a href="http://typo.leetsoft.com/">Typo</a> project. I&#8217;ve been chucking the occasional big patch and ideas at <a href="http://scottstuff.net/">Scott Laird</a>, the most active of the current maintainers, but he&#8217;s been busy doing all sorts of stuff, and he just started working at <a href="http://www.google.com/">Google</a> (go Scott!) so he doesn&#8217;t have quite as much copious free time as before.</p> <p>So, this evening I asked for, and received, my very own commit bit. Which means I can make changes to Typo without needing to funnel them through a maintainer&#8212;I&#8217;m now part of the funnel.</p> <p>Of course, responsible programming means I&#8217;ll still run big changes by Scott and the other maintainers, but it&#8217;s also useful to be able to make the kind of small changes that sometimes need to be made without it blocking on a busy man.</p> <p>Wish me luck.</p> Mon, 05 Dec 2005 22:11:00 -0600 urn:uuid:705d0394-b7bf-499a-9c10-5f88a8fea1ca pdcawley@bofh.org.uk (Piers Cawley) http://www.bofh.org.uk/articles/2005/12/05/bwah-hah-ha-ha#comments Typo typo programming ruby rails gloating http://www.bofh.org.uk/trackbacks?article_id=bwah-hah-ha-ha&day=05&month=12&year=2005 http://www.bofh.org.uk/articles/2005/12/05/bwah-hah-ha-ha
