That library can do a lot and still has lots of potential, so more dev work there should produce fun stuff.<br> <br> The patch tracker process may seem onerous, but I find that it is quite useful for discussing patches and changes. It is not at all meant to be a barrier to committing, instead it is a useful tool to handle different situations. Also, getting added to the sourceforge project does not mean you can start committing anywhere in the pure-data repository. For pix_opencv stuff, you will still need to go thru its authors before committing anything. It is up to the person wanting to commit to get explicit permission from the author/maintainer of that library before committing any changes. For example, IOhannes has asked everyone to go thru the patch/bug tracker for zexy changes, and though I have the technical permissions to commit to zexy, I post my changes to the tracker.<br> <br> Lastly, I saw that you posted the patches to pix_opencv, but I don't know that code at all, so I can't really evaluate it. If you post a patch for code that I know, then I'll review it, and then have a place to judge from. If the pix_opencv authors say they want you to have commit access, then I'll add you. There are other administrators too that can grant access if they want to.<br> <br> .hc<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br> <br> On Oct 16, 2011, at 8:07 PM, Ricardo Fabbri wrote:<br> <br> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> Dear Hans,<br> <br> I've been writing patches to pix_opencv, a tiny one that was already<br> incorporated, and the other which is more significant but is taking<br> time from Lluis to be applied.<br> <br> I was going to wait until I sent you some larger patches, however,<br> I wonder if I could get commit access already since the patch tracker<br> scheme is taking unnecessary time from people (both from you and from<br> users that take long to see the changes).
