[Geoserver-devel] Request for documentation committer status

GeoServer GeoServer Developer
1

Hey, all.

I’d like to help out by making fixes and improvements to various places in the GeoServer User documentation. Would it be possible to get committer status for the docs?

As proof that I can write, see the patch attached to http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-4990

+1 here.
Although I don't remember how to give commit access. Was it through xricles?

Yep, Martin has to register on xircles (mind, use the same id as jira
if you have
one already) and ask to become a member of the geoserver project:
http://xircles.codehaus.org/projects/geoserver/members

Then a despot should accept his request

Cheers
Andrea

Martin, the process is detailed here:

Thanks, Ben.

I was following the Documentation Guide about requesting committer access:

http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/docguide/contributing.html

Perhaps adding a link to the Dev committing page should be one of my first changes! 8^)

Martin, I still don't see your request to join the project here:
http://xircles.codehaus.org/projects/geoserver/members

(nor I see you in the member list)

Cheers
Andrea

It took a while for xircles to get back to me… But I have (I think) made the request now.

Yep. Request accepted, you have committer status. Give it a spin with
the docs patch :slight_smile:
