My opinion is that all you have to do is 1) read the developer oriented pages on our wiki (start with the link for developers on the home page of http://wiki.spamassassin.org ) then 2) create an account on our Bugzilla database at http://bugzilla.spamassassin.org then 3) file a CLA following the instructions you see when you register the Bugzilla account, which takes care of licensing issues allowing us to accept your code submissions, then 4) open a ticket on Bugzilla of type RFE (request for enhancement) in which you explain your revolutionary new scoring system and attach patches to our existing code base that implement it. Once you do that people could look at, try out, discuss, criticize, enhance, etc. until we have something ready to be committed if it gets that far. Do that enough times with enough good results and you will be in danger of being invited to have commit access to the source code so you can do the work of checking in your code instead of bothering us about it :-) -- sidney
