bedstead/CONTRIBUTING

Contributing to Bedstead
========================

While Bedstead is ultimately a personal project, I do sometimes accept
contributions from others.  If have something to contribute, please
send it by email to <bjh21@bjh21.me.uk>.  Reports of problems with
Bedstead should go to the same address.  Adding the glyphs you need is
particularly encouraged.

I pay attention to Bedstead only sporadically, so you might not get a
reply immediately.  However, if I make a new release without replying
to you that's probably a sign that I've overlooked your contribution
and you should remind me about it.

Credit
------

The authors of code and glyphs in Bedstead are listed in a comment at
the top of bedstead.c and in the HACKING file.  If you're sending a
patch, you might like to include an update to these so that you get
credited properly.  If any of your contribution is based on others'
work, please indicate that as well.  If I construct a Git commit from
your contribution, I'll put your name and email address in the
"Author" field.

All contributions of code and glyphs should be released under the CC0
Public Domain Dedication.  If you're sending a patch, adding your name
to the comment beginning "To the maximum extent possible under the
law" will indicate that you intend to release your contribution under
that dedication.

If you make a suggestion that isn't a direct code contribution, or
report a bug, I will usually credit you by name in any corresponding
Git commit message.

If you do not wish to be credited, please mention that when sending
any contribution.

If you are credited in bedstead.c and wish to change how you're
credited, please let me know.  I will generally be happy to update the
credit to whatever name you prefer.  Similarly, updates to the Git
".mailmap" file are welcome.  Git is very resistant to rewriting
history, though, so I will generally not change the credits in
published commits or releases.
