Curious about this process. Can anyone submit patches to bcachefs and Kent is just the only one doing it? Is there a community with multiple contributors hacking on the features, or just Kent? If not, what could he do to grow this? And how does a single person receiving patreon donations affect the ability of a project like this to get passed bus factor of 1?

- koverstreet 1y agoI take patches from quite a few people. If the patch looks good, I'll generally apply it. And I encourage anyone who wants to contribute to join the IRC channel. It's not a one man show, I work with a lot of people there.
