Description Chris Jerdonek 2009-12-15 14:17:25 PST

Add to the "contributing code" page--

http://webkit.org/coding/contributing.html

that patches should not be too big (e.g. 20K for standard changes).  This report is inspired by the following report to modify bugs.webkit.org:

https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25877

A patch for this can also include advice along the lines Maciej provided here:

https://lists.webkit.org/pipermail/webkit-dev/2009-December/010998.html

I will work on this.
