I agree with Pjotr: we need to pay special attention to the way we review patches coming from newcomers. If a first patch triggers loads of whitespace issues, that can be discouraging. So I think it=E2=80=99s a = good idea to take extra time to fix trivial things in patches from newcomers and just let the person know. It=E2=80=99s also good to reduce delays as much as possible for newcomers (= old timers can wait a bit longer ;-)). Anyway, thanks Jan for joining, and thanks to everyone who helps with review! :-) Ludo=E2=80=99.
