[emfcp-dev] Design Decisions

Hi,

during the last months, there has been a lot of communication among the active committers via Skype, Mail or in person. While I am very happy with the amount of communication, we did not do a very good job in making this communication transparent for everybody. This is crucial for mainly two reasons:

- Not everybody had the possibility to be informed about decisions and things we work on.
- Decisions made are not well documented

I therefore propose the following rules effectively from today:

- Every Commit on the develop or a hotfix need to be related to a Bugzilla and contain the number and title of the BugReport - For feature branches, squash the commits and add the BR information to the merge commit - If you want to change the API or the architecture, create a BR beforehand to give others the possibility to comment on this - For all changes affecting the API or the architecture, capture the reason for the change - If you discuss changes online, capture the result and the reason for the decision in a BR

If you have any comments about this, please use:

Regards

Jonas
