New Revision: 41152
URL: http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/changeset/41152
Log:
Removing the bug/feature request pages so that I can add them again with full
history. I probably won't do this for every page, but since the old pages are
still there it's pretty simple.
Removed:
website/public_html/beta/community/requests.html
website/public_html/beta/support/bugs.html
Deleted: website/public_html/beta/community/requests.html

-
- <div class="section-body">
- <p>If you have an idea for a feature or improvement to an
- existing Boost library - go ahead and post it to either
- boost-users list or
- boost mailing list
- (if you are posting for the first time, please read our
- <a href="http://www.boost.org/more/discussion_policy.htm">discussion
- policy</a> before you actually post).</p>
-
- <p>You can also try submitting a feature request to our
- <a href="http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/newticket">ticket
- system</a>, but experience has shown that posting to either of
- the mailing lists is usually a more effective way to get
- attention of boost developers.</p>
-
- <p>If your proposal has its merits, it's very likely that it
- will generate a constructive discussion that might actually
- result in (sometimes substantial) improvement of the library -
- and your name being put on the library's <a href=
- "/development/requirements.html#Acknowledgements">Acknowledgements</a>
- section!</p>

- <h1>What to do about Boost bugs</h1>
- </div>
-
- <ol>
- <li>Make sure the bug isn't already fixed in the latest
- sources. The most recent version of everything on the Boost web
- site is available from the <a href=
- "http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/BoostSubversion" class=
- "external">boost public subversion repository</a>.</li>
-
- <li>If you are a Boost user, or a Boost developer that doesn't
- have subversion write access:
-
- <ol>
- <li>Submit a bug report to either <a href=
- "/community/groups.html#users">boost-users list</a>,
- <a href="/community/groups.html#main">boost mailing
- list</a>, or our <a href=
- "http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/report" class=
- "external">bug tracking facility</a>; submitting it to
- either of the mailing lists is a preferred way - because
- many of the Boost developers read the lists on a daily
- basis, this way you are likely to get a quicker response,
- and the discussions that often arise there from (possible)
- bug reports are quite interesting and educational as
- well;</li>
-
- <li>If you have a proposed patch to the code, post it along
- with your bug report, preferably in the <em>unified
- diffs</em> format (<code>cvs diff -du</code>); if you can,
- send a patch relative to the current subversion state. A
- canonical example of creating a patch file follows (let's
- assume that you've found a bug in the file
- <code>intentional_bug.hpp</code>:
-
- <ol>
- <li>Download the latest version of
- <code>intentional_bug.hpp</code> from subversion.</li>
-
- <li>Make sure that the bug is still present in the
- code.</li>
-
- <li>Copy the file <code>intentional_bug.hpp</code> to a
- file called <code>intentional_bug.hpp.orig</code>.</li>
-
- <li>Apply your changes to
- <code>intentional_bug.hpp</code>.</li>
-
- <li>Run "<code>diff -du intentional_bug.hpp.orig
- intentional_bug.hpp >
- intentional_bug.hpp.patch</code>" from the command
- prompt.</li>
-
- <li>Submit the patch file together with an explanation
- of the bug and the proposed fix; and don't forget to
- include the word <strong>patch</strong> or
- <strong>bug</strong> in the subject if you're
- submitting to the <a href=
- "/community/groups.html#main">boost mailing
- list</a>.</li>
- </ol>
- </li>
- </ol>
- </li>
-
- <li>If you are a Boost developer, and you have subversion write
- access:
-
- <ol>
- <li>If the bug is trivial (e.g. misspelled name, missed
- <code>typename</code>, etc.), and you are willing to make a
- fix, either make your changes locally and contact the
- library author(s)/maintainer(s) about it, or go ahead and
- check the fix into subversion, but post a notification
- about it to the <a href="/community/groups.html#main">boost
- mailing list</a> (if the author is not very active on the
- list, you also might want to consider <code>cc</code>'ing
- him as well);</li>
-
- <li>If the bug is non-trivial, and/or you don't have the
- time and resources to fix it, submit a bug report (see p. 2
- above); chances are that the maintainer(s) will respond
- promptly and take care of the problem;</li>
-
- <li>Otherwise, create a temporary branch in subversion,
- make your changes there, and ask the library
- author(s)/maintainer(s) to review them; if they are ok with
- the new code, either you or they can integrate the fixes
- into the main trunk.</li>
