Hi All I would like to start a discussion about our contribution guidelines and how we release the code. I am not sure what is the Apache way, so if the mentors could please give their opinion that would be great.
What about doing this; # Contributions 1. Check for open issues on GitHub or start a discussion around a feature idea or a bug by sending a mail to [email protected] 2. Fork the repository to start making your changes. Please use the "development" branch as a basis. 3. Write a test which shows that the bug was fixed or that the feature works as expected. 4. Send a pull request with a reference to the issue # Release 1. Only the PPMC members can merge code from development into master 2. Tag the repo I know that their are a lot of steps for a successful release but I am concerned here with the code base. By the way, at the moment I am not following this approach for the crypto libs but that is only because master is not in a state that could be used but I will switch to this very shortly. Regards Kealan
