  10                         When working on a project, either an open-source project where\r
  11                         several people review your code, or a commercial\r
  12                         project where you sell a component with your source code, there will\r
  13                         be people and customers who find bugs or want to improve your \r
  14                         project. To do that they send you patches which you have to review\r
  15                         and decide if you want to apply them.\r
