[wp-hackers] Getting patches reviewed?

[David Anderson]

Hi,

I've contributed a few bug reports and patches to WP core trac, but so 
far, they've all attracted no attention.

Since I'm new to contributing to core, I'm ignorant as to how to get 
some eyeballs on them. In keeping with them being first efforts, I went 
for items that were easily reproducible bugs, and easily fixed with 
simple patches. (They are all also issues that have caused me multiple 
support requests, and time spent debugging the causes, in the real-world).

Can anyone here give me a clue as to whether there's something I should 
do, or do I just lack patience? (A couple of them are 2 months old).

Tickets:
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/26598 - broken methods in 
WP_Filesystem_Direct and WP_Filesystem_SSH2
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/26626 - prevent avoidable unzip 
failure due to 256-character pathname limits on some platforms
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/26887 - mark an implicitly public 
and important (to backup plugins) property as explicitly public (more of 
an enhancement than a bug)
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/27196 - more informative message 
when plugin install fails (I confess, I filed this one only 5 minutes 
ago - but I'm reluctant to see it suffer the same trip into limbo as the 
previous three efforts, if mentioning it can help avoid that!)

Best wishes,
David
