Contributing to iSpooge Live
iSpooge Live is a project aims to allow sovereigns to have a platform that plays well with others. This philosophy is reflected in our contributor guidelines. Thanks for considering helping us out.
Important artifacts
- README.md
- ROADMAP.md -- spoiler: we choose none
Communication
We assume an 8th grade level English proficiency. Translators welcome.
Philosophy
- Start with similarities.
- Show, don't tell--we prefer to communicate via repo activity RSS feeds.
- Focus on what's been done, connections--avoid speculation and wishing.
- Time is the enemy, ideas are cheap. (opportunity is where the value is).
eg. I see virtue 1,2,3 of that approach, but based on X,Y,Z I think this approach has merit; check out exhibits A and B.
Making changes
- Please do not submit pull requests--we'll find your changes if we want them.
- Emails with a pointer to your repo and proposal to move forward are welcome (expect days of delay).
- You've already forked off, so we don't need to do anything if we disagree.
Reporting bugs
We use the Eisenhower Matrix approach to classification:
- Important/Not - This is required for something that should work, eg. regressions
- Urgent/Not - This is required for something that needs to work NOW, eg. broken builds/blockers.
Please provide your best estimate for time and approach we should use to fix. Often times this will lead to contributing a fix. Being "non-technical" is not reasonable.
Recognition
- THANKS.md -- add your name when you fork, it'll make it in. I'll add you if we talk.
