I'm not sure a T.S. is needed and a good idea. It needlessly introduces
a point of failure in the process. Steps 6 and 7 could be equally done
by the OP. Just make sure to have the result of step 5 checked by CDT,
before moving on to step 6.
Of course, it should be pointed out that if any OP needs help with any
step (apart from the first... :) ), he should just ask for it. I'm
sure, if someone sees merit in it, he'd receive it.
I'd like to add one more step:
9.5. Track the progress of the Trac ticket, give feedback to possible
developer questions there, report back to CDT when the ticket is marked
"fixed" (by OP)
In order to still get 10 easy steps, you may consider removing step 1,
as that's a given... :)
Otherwise, I agree with the process. Nicely done, Eddy. Maybe that
should be worked into a wiki. With an actual example of every step,
once we've been through the process.
Regards,
Humdinger
