Hello,

I discussed the issue of outreachy patches for bcm with Greg, and we are
not convinced that not having the patches CCd to you is such a good idea.
While we don't want to spam you with noise, some of the applicants are
starting to make more significant changes that it could be useful for you
to be aware of.

Could we try a compromise where you are not CCd on whitespace patches, but
you are CCd on patches that actually modify the code?
All I'm asking is you work through your outreachy patches internal first to get rid of the most basic mistakes and email traffic it is geerating. Once that learning process is through then they can be sent out like any other patches to the kernel mailing lists and maintainers.

thanks,
julia


Thanks,
Scott
