Hi Andrew,

general github questions are off-topic on the GNU Radio mailing list, so
I was presuming you're specifically asking about how the GNU Radio Free
and Open Source ecosystem works.

I'm sorry if I misunderstood you:

> I want to suggest or add myself, a TCP port to a QTMM packet radio
decoder in github.


I read this as "I want to have a feature in a GNU Radio-based software,
how do I, through github, request that feature". And the answer to that
question would be: you generally don't. You get in touch with the author
and ask how one would implement that, and implement it, or motivate the
author (or someone else) to implement it. AFTER you have implemented it,
ok, that's the time where you might want to merge your code with the
original code, and that might be done via github. But that's a far way
in the future, and github has excellent documentation on how to do that,
and also I'm pretty sure it'd be optimal if you first agreed with the
original author on how they want to merge the changes.

Best regards,
Marcus
