Re: OCA module contributors and migrations
Hi Kevin, this is not an easy question to have a definitive answer on. I'd say as long as the amount of work somebody put into isn't negligable (say migrated 20 lines of small module) he / she should be named as a contributor. I think we should probably more focus on how we can make the net amount of work somebody spent on the artifact(s) more transparent, so that it becomes a more visible to everybody if a contributor is only contributing a few or a huge pile of work. But even then sometimes the smallest changes carefully thought and crafted do the largest impact.
