WebCore Community
Revision Management
WebCore source is hosted on GitHub, and utilizes Git, a distributed system whereby every developer has a copy of all commits. The Download page has instructions on how to check out the latest copy of WebCore. You can also browse the repository. GitHub has many great resources for those new to Git SCM.
Submitting Patches
- Open an Issue describing the problem; likely another developer will assist in resolving the issue. If an existing issue exists, add a comment and vote for it.
- Create a personal fork of WebCore on GitHub.
- Once a working patch (and unit tests) are complete in your fork, commit and use the GitHub web interface to issue a pull request.
- If your patch passes muster then it will be integrated. Make sure you write your code against the latest version on Git or the commit may be declined because it won’t merge. (Pull, merge conflicts locally, and re-submit if this happens.)
- Thank you for helping to improve WebCore!
Issue Tracking
WebCore currently uses GitHub’s online issue tracker to manage support tickets. If you have a problem you can post an issue there.
Support Chat Room
You can find more immediate support through IRC on irc.freenode.net in #webcore. Look for GothAlice.
IRC Archive
IRC archival software is currently under development.
Mailing List
A preliminary mailing list is available through Google Groups. Until the user base grows signifigantly, or Google Group’s problems catch up with us, this will be a reasonable place to have long-term discussion.
