Getting Involved

Reporting Problems / Getting Support

...

...

Tapestry issues are tracked in the Apache JIRA.

...

Just saying something is "broken" or "failed" is not enough. How did it fail? Did it do the wrong thing? Throw an exception? Not respond in any way? What exactly did you expect to happen? All of this information should be made available when looking for help, plus context on the general problem you were trying to solve in the first place (there may be a better solution entirely). Read Eric Raymond's guide ... it's fun and informative.

(See Building Tapestry from Source for more info.)There's also some notes on using Git to access Tapestry.

Becoming a Contributor

The best way to become a contributor is to become active on the mailing list; Tapestry is known to have an active and helpful community on the mailing list, and the more mentors we can add, the better.

...

Providing patches (with tests!) is another way to become a contributor. (See the Developer Bible for important guidance on source code formatting, class naming conventions, etc.)

Becoming a Committer

Active contributors may be asked to become full committers, with write access to the source code. Generally, contributors who have been consistently active and helpful for three to six months are eligible for committer access. If you think you are in that category, don't be shy about contacting members of the Tapestry PMC (Project Management Committee).
