Introduction
Submission Guidelines
The official development team may be limited to only a few people, but don't let that stop you from getting involved with the pyXSD project. As an open source project, any contribution is valued. If you ever see something in the code or documentation that you think could be made better, e-mail your change to <knorby at uchicago dot edu>. Please review the contribution policy before you submit anything to me. I will ask you again if you agree to terms before the contribution will be reviewed, but it is better in general to agree before you submit. If you are planning to make a contribution greater than a few changes, please contact me first. Users who establish trust by making contributions will be made developers.
Bugs
Please Submit bugs through the tracker or send bug reports to <knorby at uchicago dot edu>. Please be as detailed as possible. Since bug reports alone do not make changes to the code, they will not be considered project contributions; however, they are greatly appreciated.
Ways to Get Involved
There are several different ways to get involved. If you use pyXSD, and you see some small change that could be made, please submit it! If you are reading the documentation that comes with the program or that is on the website and you see a grammatical error, please, submit it! These small changes matter a great deal. If you want to make a bigger contribution, consider some of the suggestions below.
The TODO List
Everything on the TODO list is just waiting to be done!
Documentation
If you can write documentation for the project, please do. If you are writing something that is at all long, you should probably send me a message at <knorby at uchicago dot edu> first, in order to prevent unneeded or redundant work from being done.
Your Own Suggestion
If you have your own idea for an add-on, e-mail me at knorby at uchicago dot edu, and we can discuss it in greater detail.
