# How can I help?
|
|
|
|
You can help in numerous ways. This document should give you an overview of what
|
|
is possible and how you can get involved. It will **not** give you all information
|
|
you need to successfully contribute to avoid content duplication between this
|
|
document and our [wiki](https://wiki.ipfire.org/). Instead, it should guide you
|
|
to the right places to look for further information.
|
|
|
|
## Development
|
|
|
|
All information is available in the [development section](https://wiki.ipfire.org/devel)
|
|
of our wiki. The following is a very short overview of the most important topics.
|
|
|
|
### Contact
|
|
|
|
We use the mailing list `<development@lists.ipfire.org>` for our communication. For the
|
|
list archive and registration, see [here](http://lists.ipfire.org/mailman/listinfo/development).
|
|
|
|
### Source Code
|
|
|
|
We use our own infrastructure for code hosting, accessible at `git.ipfire.org`. The
|
|
GitHub repositories are **only** mirrors of `git.ipfire.org`, available as a courtesy
|
|
to the internet community.
|
|
|
|
### How to build the distribution?
|
|
|
|
In order to contribute, you certainly need to build the distribution at some point.
|
|
See [here](https://wiki.ipfire.org/devel/ipfire-2-x/build-howto) for a long guide
|
|
how to do that.
|
|
|
|
### Reporting bugs
|
|
|
|
We have a bug tracker located [here](https://wiki.ipfire.org/devel/bugzilla). Further
|
|
information can be found in our [wiki](https://wiki.ipfire.org/devel/bugzilla). We do
|
|
**not** use GitHub for tracking bugs.
|
|
|
|
### Contribute changes to the source code
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately, we do not accept GitHub pull requests. Instead, we are working with patches
|
|
which are sent to our mailing list `<development@lists.ipfire.org>`. This process might
|
|
be a bit tricky in the beginning. That's why you can find more information how to do
|
|
this [here](https://wiki.ipfire.org/devel/submit-patches).
