Re: [Duplicity-talk] Support for AWS S3 "Infrequent Access" Storage Option

[John]

Thanks Edgar! The new value turned out to be STANDARD_IA as documented in AWS [1].

I have made a small patch for duplicity commandline to accept the new storage class: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mnjul/duplicity/s3-infreq-access/revision/1131 and I'd like to contribute back into duplicity if that's at all possible.

As such, could anyone point me to guidelines/rules for contributing back to the official repository?

I'm looking for project-specific rules like:

1. If I should file a bug first and link my branch/commit message to that bug, and/or

2. If I should just propose a merge through launchpad, and if so, who shall I ask for review? Is there a predefined set of review types?

Much appreciated!

- John

i guess that they introduced a new storage class value. see how it is done for rrs
