Hello > I want to know how we can contribute to the xboard project. I have few > undergraduate students who are willing to work on xboard project like "EPD > test-suite capability". Kindly let us know what is the procedure for it.
That's great! There are different ways to contribute: * you can send in patches to the list or include them in the bugtracker * we use git as a version control software, so you could just create a public clone and let us know when you pushed something into it via this email list and we can pull from there. (there is also a clone at https://github.com/arunpersaud/xboard ) * you can become a member of the project at Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/xboard/ and push directly into the main git tree Please use this email list to discuss any questions that come up. XBoard/Winboard is a GNU project (http://gnu.org), so it would be great if you/your students would be willing to assign the copyright to the Free Software Foundation for your changes. I'll send you some information about this in a private email in a bit. ARUN
