[bug#54309] What is the process from here?

[fesoj000]

Hi there,

i don't think this is the right spot to ask this, but i am not sure where else
i could ask this.

What is the patch acceptance process? I am wondering, what are steps from patch
to commit? I have quite some packages, services and other patches laying around
in varying quality. I recently started cleaning them up. I plan to get them
integrated into master at some point.

So, i assume that there has to be interest and time from a guix developer to
review, maybe test and then integrate the changes/packages into one of the
branches.

Is there something i can do to help the process along? Maybe we could use this
very patch as an example. Currently i am uncertain if this patch is appropriate
for master, because of the risk that changing the auditd default log directory
might break some setups. This could be 'fixed' by writing a news snippet. But i
am not sure. Or is there still something else missing?
