Not in the patch:

pphaneuf commented 10 years ago

Thanks for the patch!

Please take note for the future that there is a quota of 50 MB for attachments (in the whole system!), so that it shouldn't be used for large binaries, as much as possible (especially on the initial submission, which cannot be deleted). In this particular case, I don't think it is even of much use?

The patch, though, is quite welcome, thanks!

pphaneuf commented 10 years ago

Yeah, sorry for the big binary. Feel free to delete it from the issuetracker (devs should be able to do this, or?).

I've tried to make a site in the wiki for it, but it seems only project developer can edit the wiki.

Another suggestion: in the readme-win32.txt is still a passage about DirectX, perhaps with SDL it is obsolete?

pphaneuf commented 10 years ago

No, even project admins can't delete anything on Google Code (they want to keep the history of everything, it's only possible in cases of abuse), I just asked. They did crank up the project's quota for issues attachments by 25 MB, so no worries. ;-)

Making an issue and attaching the patch is indeed the best way to send contributions our way.

Note that you called your build 1.2, but the SDL branch is going to be 1.3, actually. The plan is that 1.3.x will be "unstable" development versions, for daring people willing to endure some bugginess in order to try out new features, test them and give us feedback.

You meant making a page in the wiki on the subject of the SDL branch? We're not using the wiki much, and the way it works on Google Code is apparently not as open as wikis are on other sites (people that are not members of projects can leave comments on existing wiki pages, that's it). We're using the discussion groups more, for what it's worth, feel free to join them and take part in the project!

Our current focus is on releasing 1.2 (the trunk version), so yeah, it's possible that readme-win32.txt is out of date with regard to the SDL branch. I'll file an issue to fix this, so we don't forget.
