Contributing to fawkeZ

There are many ways you can contribute to fawkeZ:

• Answer questions from other user's on the mailing-list.

• Send patches for any issues by using the devel mailing-list or the issue tracking system.
• Help us to improve the documentation.

Submit Patches

If you want to send us a patch (via mailing-list or Trac ticket attachment) then please use svn diff to create the patch.

$ svn diff > jcoderz-date-type.patch

In case you choose to send a patch using an email to the devel mailing-list then please attach the patch as a file and do not paste the patch into your email's body. Doing so will make the patch unusable because during transfer lines that are longer than 72 characters will be wrapped so that the patch structure becomes invalid.

Before finally submitting the patch make sure that your code follows the Java coding guidelines [PDF] of the fawkeZ project.

Any contribution is highly appreciated, these rules only make sure that your request can be processed in time!
