2. If you have a [GitHub][github] account, or are willing to [create | ||
one][github-join], but do not know how to use Git, you can report problems | ||

assign the item to someone and to respond to it in a threaded discussion. | ||
|
||
### Implement Features | ||

you can submit a pull request (PR). Instructions for doing this are | ||

three. | ||
