| # How to Contribute |
| |
| We'd love to accept your patches and contributions to this project. There are |
| just a few small guidelines you need to follow. |
| |
| ## Contributor License Agreement |
| |
| Contributions to this project must be accompanied by a Contributor License |
| Agreement. You (or your employer) retain the copyright to your contribution; |
| this simply gives us permission to use and redistribute your contributions as |
| part of the project. Head over to <https://cla.developers.google.com/> to see |
| your current agreements on file or to sign a new one. |
| |
| You generally only need to submit a CLA once, so if you've already submitted one |
| (even if it was for a different project), you probably don't need to do it |
| again. |
| |
| ## Code reviews |
| |
| Mendel is developed publicly, entirely in the open, but all submissions -- |
| including submissions by project members -- require review. We use Gerrit for |
| this purpose to help maintain releases for various boards that Mendel runs on. |
| Our [public Gerrit instance](https://coral-review.googlesource.com/) is |
| available at https://coral-review.googlesource.com/. |
| |
| ## Contact Points and Discussion Areas |
| |
| The Mendel Linux team hang out in IRC in the |
| [#mendel-linux](ircs://irc.oftc.net:6697/#mendel-linux) channel on |
| [oftc.net](https://webchat.oftc.net/). |
| |
| Bug reports and patches are welcome via our public support email address at |
| "Coral" <coral-support@google.com>. |
| |
| ## Community Guidelines |

| This project follows |
| [Google's Open Source Community |
