Nothing from the mailing list will be handled anymore and it will soon be
dismantled completely. Add-on that got send to the mailing list and have
not been handled yet should again submit it according to the text below.
For any add-on update please use github pull requests or issue tickets on
the correct repository.
More information can be found at
http://kodi.wiki/view/Submitting_Add-ons#Github
Here's a quick overview.

Pull requests
New add-ons or updates may be submitted directly to the Official add-on
repository <http://kodi.wiki/view/Official_add-on_repository> on Github as
pull requests. We encourage add-on developers to use this method as the
process is easier for both parties involved. Of course this requires some
initial git knowledge and we strongly suggest to read up on this subject
before using this method. To reduce size we have split up the git
repositories in several locations. Please visit Official add-on repository
<http://kodi.wiki/view/Official_add-on_repository> to see where they are.
Each contains a small readme with a short description of it's contents as
well as a link to a short explanation on how to submit using git command
line. There are also git tools available that have a graphic interface and
the steps above should be done in a similar way. Please consult the manual
of those programs.
In addition to the repository guidelines
<http://kodi.wiki/view/Add-on_rules> the following rules apply when
submitting PRs on Github:
- PR should contain one commit only.
- Commit message should have the format "[addonid] version". Example:
"[my.cool.addon] 1.0.1"
Only PRs from the add-on author or his successor will be accepted. Patches
should be submitted upstream to the original author first. For an easy way
to create PR from your own git repository, see HOW-TO: create add-on PRs
using Git Subtree Merging
<http://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Create_add-on_PRs_using_Git_Subtree_Merging>.

Issue ticket
If you are not experienced yet with git and pull requests you may also use
the "issue" option where you submit a request to get you add-on added. In
this ticket you need to provide the basic information needed so our repo
maintainers know where to get the correct version. This consists of
- Add-on name:
- Add-on ID:
- Version number:
- Kodi/repository version:
- Code location URL:
- Revision/tag:
- Branch:
Further information is provide when you initially create the issue on
github as comments in the ticket. Same repository guidelines
<http://kodi.wiki/view/Add-on_rules> apply here as well.
WARNING: Do not create bug tickets in these repositories as they will be
closed without notice.
