Re: An Analysis Pattern for Inventories

[Neil Tiffin]

We work with consensus from the core team.  For application packages 
that has typically included Reinhard and myself.  We welcome all 
input.  As with most free software a lot gets defined by the person 
doing to work and making the contribution.  Good work is seldom 
turned away.

The process involves putting forward a proposal, then vetting it 
either with email or IRC discussions.  When we reach general 
agreement (or get close) we commit to CVS.

I would very much like to use patterns.  We have some limitations 
however.  The work must be in the public domain or usable under a 
license that is acceptable to Derek (GNU).  Also the contributors 
must have signed a copyright assignment.
