Before you engage in an activity that will take you a significant amount of
|
2017-04-01 11:29:25 -04:00
|
|
|
time, like implementing a new feature, it's always good to contact us first,
|
2016-11-20 01:45:57 -05:00
|
|
|
preferably via the [qubes-devel] mailing list. Once we've worked out the
|
2016-11-20 02:18:19 -05:00
|
|
|
details, we'll add you to our [Community-Developed Feature Tracker]. We'll then
|
|
|
|
|
be grateful to [receive your patch][patch].
