Clarify where pull requests should go #407
Description
Activity
Send all patches here :)
But what's best for the ecosystem? Submitting it to both then?
If it lands in joyent/node and it's noteworthy / useful enough, we'll eventually cherry-pick it into io.js. joyent/node is not known for high speed patch reviews, however; that's one of the reasons io.js exists.
Given the large overlap of codebase between Node.js and io.js, it is often not easy for contributors to understand where to send patches. For instance, the two pull requests below express the exact same changes in the different projects:
What is the proper procedure?
Only create one pull request (where?) and hope it eventually gets merged in both?
Or create to pull requests like I have just done?
Maybe it would be good to clarify this in the contributors guidelines.
