FAQ: Contributing code |
|
====================== |
|
|
|
How can I get started contributing code to Django? |
|
-------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
|
Thanks for asking! We've written an entire document devoted to this question. |
|
It's titled :ref:`Contributing to Django <internals-contributing>`. |
|
|
|
I submitted a bug fix in the ticket system several weeks ago. Why are you ignoring my patch? |
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
|
Don't worry: We're not ignoring you! |
|
|
|
It's important to understand there is a difference between "a ticket is being |
|
ignored" and "a ticket has not been attended to yet." Django's ticket system |
|
contains hundreds of open tickets, of various degrees of impact on end-user |
|
functionality, and Django's developers have to review and prioritize. |
|
|
|
On top of that: the people who work on Django are all volunteers. As a result, |
|
the amount of time that we have to work on the framework is limited and will |
|
vary from week to week depending on our spare time. If we're busy, we may not |
|
be able to spend as much time on Django as we might want. |
|
|
|
Besides, if your feature request stands no chance of inclusion in Django, we |
|
won't ignore it -- we'll just close the ticket. So if your ticket is still |
|
open, it doesn't mean we're ignoring you; it just means we haven't had time to |
|
look at it yet.
