<br>first, please subscribe to the NUT developers mailing list (added as Cc of the present mail), since it's the best way to interact with the NUT project (i.e, publicly).<br><br>@Elio: don't be afraid to introduce yourself and your work, and ask for advices on this NUT mailing list.<br>
we're not the LKML, and no external developer was threatened during our development ;)<br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div link="blue" vlink="purple" lang="IT">

<br>without a thorough review, your attachment violates many points:<br>- C++ style comments,<br>- space indentation<br>- inline comments in Italian<br>- missing source reference of the derivative work (probably the blazer driver) and other part of headers<br>
...<br><br>on the patch submission:<br><a href="http://www.networkupstools.org/docs/developer-guide.chunked/ar01s03.html#_submitting_patches" target="_blank">http://www.networkupstools.org/docs/developer-guide.chunked/ar01s03.html#_submitting_patches</a><br>
<br>note that your patch misses:<br>- build rules in drivers/Makefile.am<br>- a manual page. Refer to docs/man/skel.txt and other files in the same directory.<br>- new entries in the hardware compatibility list (data/driver.list)<br>
<br>then use "svn diff > ../riello.diff" from your subversion checkout directory, to produce the patch.<br>please compress the patch before sending it to the list.<br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
