Contributing

Thank you for showing interest in contributing to VeloxVM! We appreciate all different kinds of contributions to the project, including reporting errors, developing software, writing documentation, and helping other users.

Reporting Errors

Errors are preferably reported using the Issue Tracker. Please observe that this tracker is not for support questions!

Developing Software

All software contributions can be submitted as Pull Requests (PRs) on GitHub. In particular, we encourage people who report errors through the Issue Tracker to also submit a corresponding source code fix as a PR.

New great features, such as support for a new programming language, a compiler optimization, or perhaps a new instruction, are very welcome. We advise developers to discuss such features on the Issue Tracker or by mail correspondence before beginning the effort to implement them, so as to be sure that there is sufficient interest to merge them into the main source repository.

Writing Documentation

Documentation updates can be made both in the main source repository and in project wikis and web sites. In the former case, the updates should be submitted as pull requests and undergo the same review process as software modifications. In the latter case, the maintainer of such wikis and web sites should be contacted instead.

Review Process

Contributions that are submitted as pull requests will be reviewed by at least one person in the Review Team, who takes the decision to either accept or reject the pull request. If the reviewer requests changes to a pull request, the submitter has one month to make those changes, or the PR will be rejected. In case of a major change, this time limit may be extended if so requested. The Review Team consists of experienced developers who are appointed to the team by the project leader.
