F2. How can I get involved in the Facsimile project?

Participation in the Facsimile project is both welcomed and encouraged!

You can get involved in a number of ways, depending upon how much time you can spare and how much experience and expertise you have to offer. At its simplest, you can get involved by using Facsimile and reporting your feedback (such as filing bug reports or specifying new features). At the other end of the spectrum, you may wish to become a developer and work on the Facsimile code base, fixing those very same bugs and implementing new features. Or you could volunteer to help out with the web-site, graphic design, documentation, testing, user support - in short, whatever you may feel comfortable with.

Note that if you wish to become a developer, you will need to have accounts on both Launchpad and SourceForge, as well as on this site.

We have adopted the following policy for contributions:

The Facsimile project welcomes your contributions (including code patches) provided that you are able to:

  • assert that all your Facsimile project contributions are your own original works, and that you own the relevant copyright.
  • provide a disclaimer from your current employer (if applicable) relinquishing any interest in your contributions to the Facsimile project.
  • license your contributions to the Facsimile project under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License V3 (LGPLv3).
