Development Issues

This website is an instance of the ​Trac project management software, which provides for issue/bug tracking in particular. For each project that are listed below we defined a so-called component in this Trac system. This allows for associating tickets with projects, since every ticket is defined for a specific component.

Questions and Comments: In case you have questions about contents provided at this site, we would like to encourage you to send a message to: <tbd> (at) hpi.uni-potsdam.de (we are still in contact with our admin for setting up this)

Bugs and Feature Requests: If you encounter a bug, unexpected behavior, of if you have an idea on how to improve the project, please consider creating a new ticket.

How to Contribute: In case you extend the code base or eliminate unwanted behavior, please consider contribuing your change. We recommend two ways:

• create a new ticket in this Trac system and attach your change to this ticket
• submit the change to our INBOX (​http://www.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/hirschfeld/squeaksource/swasqueakinbox)
  The inbox concept is used for development activities on the Squeak image and is described at ​http://squeakboard.wordpress.com/2009/07/02/a-new-community-development-model/
