It is probably good to manage the projects, todo lists, feature requests, and bugs all in one place, also called a tracker. We use Mantis for that. A quick link is: http://tracker.openpetra.org

Everyone can report issues (we will revise that if the spam becomes too much...).
Please have a look on the [https://github.com/openpetra/openpetra/issues Github Issue Tracker] for all sorts of things that need to be done!


For discussion, it might be useful to have those discussions in the forum.
Please ask on the [https://forum.openpetra.org forum] if you are interested to help but don't know where to start...


For technical details of an implementation, we should document that in the wiki.

There is also quite a bit of work that needs to be done, and can/should be done, by people who are ''not programmers''.


Only the core developers have write access to the Git code repository of OpenPetra at Sourceforge. For all other developers, it will be necessary to check out the Git repository anonymously, and then create a branch for yourself (see [[Notes about Git]]). Then you can use the Patch functionality of Git to create patches and send them to the OpenPetra.org project. Please use the [http://apps.sourceforge.net/phpbb/openpetraorg/viewforum.php?f=12 forum for submitting patches].

We need to still discuss how we deal with the copyright of contributions. See also the discussion on this blog about [http://blogs.gnome.org/bolsh/2009/04/08/copyright-assignment-and-other-barriers-to-entry/ copyright assignment]. Please let us know what you would prefer! OM is a charity, and it might be a good copyright holder to make relicensing easier. But if that is a big problem for you, please let us know, and we can discuss it.

Overview

Contributing Source Code to OpenPetra.org outlines how we go about contributions from programmers to OpenPetra.

Please have a look on the Github Issue Tracker for all sorts of things that need to be done!

Please ask on the forum if you are interested to help but don't know where to start...

Non-Programmer Projects

There is also quite a bit of work that needs to be done, and can/should be done, by people who are not programmers.

List of Projects

The best would be, if you discover something that you would like or need in OpenPetra for your own charity.
