Correct way to send patches

SDL Development
1

Hi,

what is the expected way to send patches for SDL?
I ask because I already sent out two emails

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.sdl/40208
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.sdl/40416

and never got a response. (I even asked the "where to send patches"
already in mail 1. Both patches are trivial and should be straight
forward. ( If they aren’t a response would be great also. )

Having many small changes lying around in my local SVN checkout and not
knowing if they ever might get committed doesn’t make contributing to
SDL easier.
So please tell me where to send patches or tell me, whats wrong with
these patches…

Thanks a lot
Stefan

Have you created tracker items and attached your patches?

Not yet. I’ll do that. I thought the mailing list would be a faster way
to handle small changes…

Cheers

The best way is to enter bugs in bugzilla:
http://bugzilla.libsdl.org

However, we try to catch patches sent to the mailing list too, so if we
miss one please send me e-mail.

Thanks!
