The following are the guidelines for the 2.1 patch review mode.  We
still need one more reviewer for GtkHTML.

Starting Tuesday Feb. 8th, 2005 at 00:01 Boston time, patch review mode will be
in effect: 

* Every patch will be sent to evolution-patches@ximian.com and conform
to the guidelines at http://www.gnome.org/projects/evolution/patch.shtml

* Every patch will have to be on the list for at least 24 hours before
being committed. A week-end (Saturday+Sunday) counts as a single 24-hour day.

* Core maintainers are required to give their opinion on the bug in the
  24 hour period.

* Core maintainers are defined as follows:

        Addressbook (Evolution and EDS):
		Sivaiah N <snallagatla@novell.com>
		Hans Petter Jennson <hpj@ximan.com>

        Calendar (Evolution and EDS):
                Rodrigo Moya <rodrigo@ximian.com>
		Harish Krishnaswamy <kharish@novell.com>

        GtkHTML:
                Radek Doulik <rodo@ximian.com>

        Mailer (Evolution and EDS):
                Jeffrey Stedfast <fejj@ximian.com>

	Groupwise (EDS):
		Sivaiah N <snallagatla@novell.com>
		Harish Krishnaswamy <kharish@novell.com>

                JP Rosevear <jpr@ximian.com>
                Michael Zucchi <notzed@ximian.com>

        GAL:
		Any of the maintainers listed above

* Once the patch has been committed, it is repsonsibility of the person
who commits to:

        - Close the corresponding bug on Bugzilla.

        - Write to the mailing list, replying to the original message
          containing the patch to inform the other hackers that the
          patch has been committed.
