We gladly accept patches if you can find ways to improve, tune or fix ServiceMix in some way.

To submit a patch, please use the following steps:

  1. Create a new JIRA issue fully explaining the situation, including the environments you've test, the JVM you're using and anything else that might be useful to know about the situation
  2. Attach the patch to the issue that you are creating and make sure to tick the 'Patch Attached' checkbox on the issue
  3. Send an email to the Mailing Lists or Discussion Forums to let people know you've filed an issue and contributed a patch for the issue
  4. Please try to also submit tests in the patch. Including tests makes applying the patch much easier and faster. Tests allow a patch to be applied and tested much quicker which results in your issue being fixed faster.
