Hi, (...)
First of all, thanks for taking all your work in doing this and for communicating clearly :)
Once the bug it created and the patch(s) attached, email myself or Zebediah
Imo this is the achilles' heel in the new proposed process, since it makes the process pretty opaque and moves conversations to private. Maybe a feature could be added to bugzilla so a patch or bug could be marked as proposed for staging and then have different status like accepted, rejected, needs work, or something similar I can imagine a few similar ways to improve this part of the process (not necessarily centered on staging itself, but maybe on patch status).
For example, I have proposed yesterday the inclusion of patches from bugs 44089 and 45127 to Zebediah on irc. Other wine developers where there and there was some great feedback from everyone, but that's somehow lost it doesn't reflect in bugzilla or other public records. With a personal email a similar thing would have happened maybe one gets good or bad feedback but that won't necessarily reflect in bugzilla.
Again, thanks a lot both to you and Zebediah for your work on wine-staging.
Regards
Pablo
