[opensuse-ruby] Re: Re: [ruby-devel] Ruby style guide - update process

Hey, Could you please tell me again why we don't just use an existing (and popular) resource like this: https://github.com/bbatsov/ruby-style-guide Cheers, Dominik Am Donnerstag, 26. September 2013, 15:47:49 schrieb Josef Reidinger:

Hi,

at the CSM Workshop at SUSE we discussed how to update the current SUSE Ruby style guide [1] to reflect the experience we gained since its introduction and also real-world Ruby usage. We agreed on the

following: 1. The style guide should have a maintainer, who will be

responsible for its text and for processing and incorporating changes proposed by others. Maintainer's decisions should generally reflect the prevailing opinions of SUSE/openSUSE Ruby developers as they will

express them.

I volunteered to be such maintainer, which was accepted by everyone present.

2. There should be a clear process to introduce changes, which

would allow everyone interested to participate, but which would also be light-weight and which would not cause additional delays. The

process proposal we agreed on is outlined below.

3. SUSE Ruby developers will meet at future CSM Workshops whenever

they feel the need to discuss changes in the style guide in person. Proposed changes resulting from such discussions will

then still go through the formal process like all other changes.

Please have a look at the process proposal and let me know if you have any comments. After the discussion I'd like to put the final process description into the style-guides repository. Then I'd like to use the process to propose some specific changes to the specification, which we also discussed at the CSM Workshop.

Thank you.

Style Guide Update Process --------------------------

Anyone interested can propose a change to the Ruby style guide. Such

person is called an *initiator*. The process is as follows: 1. The initiator creates a pull request against the style guide on

GitHub with the proposed change.

2. The initiator announces the proposed change at: - ruby-devel@suse.de - opensuse-ruby@opensuse.org.

Ugh why? and our internal ruby-devel that is intended mainly to discuss legal, security or support issues is not accesible outside of suse for community contributors. So I propose to use only opensuse ruby mailing list.

...

3. SUSE/openSUSE Ruby developers will discuss the proposed change

(either at the pull request on GitHub, or in the mailing lists), possibly expressing their agreement, disagreement and requests

for modifications. This discussion will be overseen by the maintainer,

who will work with the initiator to adapt the proposed change as necessary.

I don't like to split discussion on various places. I think discussion should happen on one place and github pull request sound better for me then mailing list. So I propose to discuss it only on pull request.

...

4. Based on the discussion, the maintainer will decide either to

merge the pull request or reject it. He will announce his

decision as a reply to the original e-mail announcement of the proposed change.

Otherwise sounds good.
