Welcome, developers! This is the Fedora Repository Development wiki. Here you'll find information about the development team, resources of interest to Fedora developers, and instructions on how you can work with us and contribute code to the project.
Who We Are
The Fedora project has had many contributors and committers in the past. The current set of committers on the project come from Fedora Commons and several other organizations. Currently, we are:
Name | Organization(s) | Address |
|---|---|---|
Aaron Birkland | NSDL Cornell | birkland at cs dot cornell dot edu |
Bill Brannan | Fedora Commons | bbrannan at fedora-commons dot org |
Eddie Shin | Fedora Commons, Media Shelf | eddie at fedora-commons dot org |
Kai Strnad | FIZ Karlsruhe | Kai dot Strnad at fiz-karlsruhe dot de |
Chris Wilper | Fedora Commons | cwilper at fedora-commons dot org |
Andrew Woods | Fedora Commons | awoods at fedora-commons dot org |
How To Contribute
You don't have to be a committer to contribute code! We have a lot of things to work on, and love to recieve quality contributions. Patches for bugfixes and code cleanup are most appreciated, and are relatively easy to get approved and merged by an existing committer. You can find a list of unassigned, outstanding items to be worked on in th FCRepo Tracker. Notify us via the fedora-commons-developers mailing list if you plan on working on an item. When you're ready to submit code, attach your changes to the issue in question and let us know, again via the developers mailing list. Note that there is also a Community Support Tracker in JIRA, where new issues can be submitted by anyone. These issues have not necessarily been verified by the committers, but can be worked on by anyone.
After making significant contribution to the codebase, you may be asked to become a committer. Committers are trusted members of the development community who have write access to the code repository and are thus able to make changes more effectively. Please see the Committer's Guide for more information.
