<div class="PlainText">Hi there,<br>
<br>
This is now happening weekly to me now, probably because I write too<br>
many patches touching almost all OpenStack projects once a cycle, and<br>
I'm really tired of that behavior, so PLEASE:<br>
<br>
*Stop sending Code-Review-1 when asking a question in a patch*<br>
<br>
_Sometimes_ there are good reasons to set -1 even when asking a<br>
question. For example, when the question is a hint sent to the patch<br>
author so that (s)he improves is commit message, a code comment or a<br>
piece of code.<br>
<br>
But most of the time, if you ask a question because there's something<br>
YOU DO NOT KNOW OR UNDERSTAND, do not put a score to a patchset. You<br>
don't know the answer, so you have absolutely no right to evaluate a<br>
patchset with -1. Just don't set a score, it's OK, and wait for the<br>
answer before deciding if the patch is worth [-1..+2].<br>
<br>
Thank you for listening, and happy hacking!<br>
<br>
