Quicklaunch: Getting started with contributing...

[Ingomar Wesp]

Hello, there.

I'd like to get involved with plasma development, but I'm still a bit unsure 
about a few details regarding the process of submitting patches. Since the 
quicklaunch applet still suffers from a number of issues and is pretty easy to 
understand, I thought it might be the right target for my first steps in KDE 
source land...

Specifically, I created a patch that (hopefully ;) fixes bugs #200798 [1] and 
#225011 [2]. I also felt the urge to fix some indentation / trailing 
whitespace  issues. Now I'm not quite sure whether I should post patches on 
reviewboard for the individual issues separately or in one big patch that 
addresses all the issues but might be harder to read / review.

Also, what's the best way for proposing future changes (like changing the flow 
of icons to match the one used in the task bar). Should I file a bug report or 
would it be better to discuss such things here at the mailing list?

Best regards,
Ingo
