  31         There has been some discussion on the mailing list of how best to get patches
  32         available to users of libraries. This is the understanding I have been using.
  33         I posted this and have had no comments on it.
  34       </p>
  35 <div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc">
  36 <li class="listitem">
  37             Maintainers can have write access to the particular library for which
  38             they have responsibility. This includes all the branches and in particular
  39             both develop and master.
  40           </li>
  41 <li class="listitem">
  42             It is up to the maintainer to put patches and tests onto develop and
  43             see whether there are any remaining problems.
  44           </li>
  45 <li class="listitem">
  46             It is then up to the maintainer to move the patches and tests from develop
  47             to master.
  48             <div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="circle">
  49 <li class="listitem">
  50                   This does not have to wait for a release of Boost.
  51                 </li>
  52 <li class="listitem">
  53                   It can be done any time and at some point master will then become
  54                   the next release.
  55                 </li>
  56 </ul></div>
  57           </li>
  58 <li class="listitem">
  59             I do not think that develop is moved to master in any other way. It is
  60             the maintainer who will know when that is the correct action.
  61           </li>
  62 </ul></div>
  63 <p>
  64         If there is more than one maintainer then any of them can do this. Each will
  65         be able to see what has happened from the git log.
