Re: Re: cvs: CVSROOT / avail loginfo

Hi Johannes,

On a side-note: It's not only about peer review - without signing the CLA one might still read the code and send reports to the maintainers.

I was responding to Richard when I wrote that. He was operating under the assumption that php.net have control over what goes into a CLA'd module, and that's the sense in which 'peer review' was used in his post.

But we can't maintain it! This is a major change in the development process, currently everybody with CVS account, which you can get quite easily compared to many other projects, can fix any bugs in every place (ok, Zend/ and TSRMLS/ are a bit limited, but still) and if we decide on a API change, like the recent change with refcounts the required fixes can easily applied. With code, which is bundled and under a CLA everybody who wants to do even simple changes, fixing compile errors, ... is _forced_ to sign it for doing serious work.

Precisely. - Steph
