AngelScript on GitHub, etc

Hey all,

I was just wondering, is there a reason that angel script isn't hosted somewhere? For example, on GitHub or bitbucket?

I feel like collaboration and visibility would be better if it was on one of the "social coding" platforms.

Cheers

Jarrett

It is hosted on sourceforge.net but there is also a github mirror,

Ahh thanks Andreas.

I was wondering, how would one go about contributing code? Is this something that would be welcome

Typically, you follow project guidelines for such a thing. Since SF is the main repository apparently, I'd start looking there for a guide to contribute to the project. Alternatively, you could try to find some way to contact the development team, for example mailing list, a forum, or a chat-room somewhere.

Check if they have issues that need work, whether there is active development, and possibly some kind of queue of code patches that are "ready", ie waiting for review or acceptance by the team.

Other stuff to look for are coding style and documentation style guides, but generally, the guidelines point at them.

In this case, I am the development team ?

Code contributions are welcome, as long as the changes are aligned with my vision for the library.

You can send me the modified files (or a diff patch), either by posting them here or directly to my e-mail andreas@angelcode.com.

I normally don't merge the contributed code as-is, I'll review the contributions, add automated regression test cases for it, and tweak the code if needed before I commit to the repository.

Is there any particular feature you would like to contribute? If not you can take a look at the to-do list and see if there is anything you feel like working on.

Regards,
Andreas
