Re: [PATCH v2 2/3] Maintainer Handbook: Maintainer Entry Profile
Jonathan,
Thus far, the maintainer guide is focused on how to *be* a
maintainer.
This document, instead, is more about how to deal with specific
maintainers. So I suspect that Documentation/maintainer might be the
wrong place for it.
Should we maybe place it instead under Documentation/process, or even
create a new top-level "book" for this information?
I think Documentation/process is the right place for all the common
practices and guidelines for code submission. Documentation is already
pretty big. And based on the discussions in this thread, I think we're
better off enhancing the existing process documents instead of
introducing more places for people to look.
