  3. I wrote up these tips on emailing to help my friends and relatives email better: http://dtrejo.com/how-to-email Summary: - Keep it under 250 words. - Ask only one question, directly before your signature. - Ask a single yes/no question. - Extra Credit: Show you did your research - If you really want a reply: follow up in a useful way.

  7. Very glad you're working on this! Here is my wish list as a code reviewer: 1. Allow me to step through the code execution paths that have been modified in the pull request, based on the tests that have been modified. 2. Allow me to see the data being handled in variables as I look through the code. 3. Allow me to see code coverage of each part of the code. 4.
