Hi all,
Today, I came across this update [1] from DigitalOcean, one of the
companies behind Hacktoberfest. TL;DR: to prevent "spam pull requests",
only accepted/merged/approved pull requests against GitHub repositories
labelled "hacktoberfest" qualify for the free t-shirt or planting a
tree. This is other than previous years, where _every_ pull request
would qualify, even if the repository owner did not explicitly
participate in Hacktoberfest.
I would argue it makes sense to opt-in Maven repositories for
Hacktoberfest. If it could encourage people to start contributing to
Maven, I think that would be useful. It might also bring Maven to the
attention of people who are looking for (Java) projects to contribute to.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Maarten
