But... I've given this some more thought. I don't feel that the argument "it's not documented" is a completely fair excuse, from long-time maintainers. It's not like we invent a new workflow element every two weeks. I think it's fair to expect that maintainers learn new things by doing it and by watching others do it. No particular maintainer lives and works in a bubble. If they merge a series, close a BZ, report back on the list, populate a PR with useful information -- all those steps are *visible* to everyone else. And other long-term maintainers could simply start copying good practices they see. I'm not talking about closely following other maintainers' work, just acknowledging / not completely ignoring their activitities. Laszlo
