I think the information in my comments about proper contents of the patch submission is generally already present in contribute.html. There may be less information about expectations for target architecture / OS maintainers running tests on an ongoing basis. Perhaps at the Cauldron we should discuss whether we wish to move towards a requirement of bots posting test results for all new architecture and OS ports? -- Joseph S. Myers jos...@codesourcery.com
