I was following what is explained at: http://testthewebforward.org/docs/submission-process.html I don't mind to use a different workflow, whatever works best for you. However I didn't found documentation about how I should submit patches for review in Shepherd. Checking other examples in Shepherd and if I understood it properly. It seems that I should request commit access and push the tests directly there. Then you'd review them inside Shepherd and new changes will be done on top of the original tests until they're approved. Take into account that this contradicts the README file in the tests repository: "Please note that although we will grant write access directly to the Mercurial repo, it is strongly advised to use GitHub for test submissions to enable reviewers to use its built-in review tools. Direct submissions to Mercurial should be limited to administrative or housekeeping tasks, very minor changes that don't require a review, or from advanced users of the system." Anyway, I'm open to follow whatever you suggest. :-) >> Probably, we could use milestones and issues too (like other specs are >> doing), in order to follow the progress. >> I don't have permissions to create labels and milestones at this point, >> so I'd be grateful if someone can create a milestone "css-grid-1_dev" >> and a label "spec:grid". > > Unfortunately, I can not help you with that. If finally we we don't use GitHub, probably we could forget about this (it was just an idea). Otherwise, if we end up using GitHub I hope I could find someone to help us with this. > A bit more explanations on how to reduce test linkages.

I agree with you that it's a good idea try to reuse them when possible. Thanks for sharing the other notes and comments too. Cheers, Rego
