Makes sense guys, much appreciated. Will try.

Relu,
There are a number of ways to run an open source project. In the case
of Slurm, the code is managed by SchedMD. As a rule, one presumes that
they have plenty on their plate, and little time to respond to the
mailing list. Hence the suggestion that one get a support contract to
get their attention. I’m not complaining, it’s just the way it works.
This mailing list is handled 99% by users like you and me. If you’ve
got a great idea, particularly if you have an implementation, one of
the best ways to handle it is to describe your innovation here, asking
for feedback if you choose, and then offer the patch here on the
mailing list or, as Ryan suggests, post it in the Bugzilla.

I’ve previously seen code contributed back in that way. See bug 1611
as an example (happened to have looked at that just yesterday).

Thanks Ryan, I'll try the bugs site. And indeed, one person in our
organization has already said "let's pay for support, maybe
they'll listen." :) It's a little bit funny to me that we don't
actually need support, but get it hoping that they might consider
adding a feature which we think would benefit everyone.
We have actually modified the code on both v 19 and 20 to do what
we would like, preemption within the same QOS, but we think that
the community would benefit from this feature, hence our request
to have it in the release version.

Depends on the issue I think, but the bugs site is often a way
to request enhancements, etc. Of course, requests coming from
an entity with a support contact carry more weight.

Hi all,
I posted recently on this mailing list a feature request
and got no reply from the developers. Is there a better
way to contact the slurm developers or we should just
accept that they are not interested in community feedback?
Regards,
Relu
