    Does anyone know what the status of MP patch submission process is? I submitted a patch (outlined in this post) 5 days ago and it has yet to be included in a cvs build.

    Also, while the last couple of patches I submitted ended up in a build in record time, details of the changes never made it into the changelog. This is unfortunate as I suspect many users won't know about the changes if they're not included in the changelog file.

    Thanks--Steve

    Hi, glad to hear someone is really submitting patches.
    Few things that i have found useful when submitting.
    - Submit whole files (not just diffs)
    - Go to irc and announce your patch
    - make a new topic to this forum with descritive heading

    Hope theses hints help.
    Developers (i'm not a developer btw) check patches and if they find them good they will be included.

    Good suggestions. I've done most of these but perhaps not as formally as I should have. Sound like the delay is because the devs are busy concentrating on MP stability rather than new features.
