4. More information
The development of the obby family is coordinated on its Trac
project page on http://gobby.0x539.de/. The primary distribution point is
http://releases.0x539.de/.
_________________________________________________________
4.1. How to report bugs
Bugs could be filed as tickets at http://gobby.0x539.de/trac/newticket or
submitted directly to us at [email protected]. Please include a
reachable email address in your bug report as we often need to
contact the reporters for clarifications. Commonly bugs are
scheduled for the next major release and will be listed in the
roadmap.
_________________________________________________________
4.2. How to get involved
We urgently seek all kind of people who could help us in any
way. Firstly we need documentation writers who could help us
crafting a help file and some standalone documentation for the
web. Secondly, if you are skilled in C/C++ programming, we could
need helping hands with programming. You could use our project
page as a starting point to look for tickets which need
fixing. And last, but certainly not least, we need translators
who get their hands at Gobby's string templates to get it
localised. Thus more could use Gobby in their native language.
Just contact us, if in doubt, for more details.
There are also two mailing lists which should provide a mean
of contact to other Gobby users and to the developers.
* obby-announce: A moderated list used to announce new
releases of Gobby and its foundation, net6, obby and libinfinity.
Please refer to
http://list.0x539.de/mailman/listinfo/obby-announce if you
want to subscribe it.
* obby-users: Discussions about Gobby's usage and
installation problems. The announcements are also posted
there. Please refer to
http://list.0x539.de/mailman/listinfo/obby-announce if you
want to subscribe it.
