Contributing to OVH-Warp10-Datasource

This project accepts contributions. In order to contribute, you should pay attention to a few things:

  1. your code must follow the coding style rules
  2. your code must be fully documented
  3. your work must be signed
  4. the format of the submission must be GitHub Pull Requests

Submitting Modifications:

The guidelines are the same as the patch submission for the Linux kernel except for the DCO which is defined below. The guidelines are defined in the 'SubmittingPatches' file, available in the directory 'Documentation' of the Linux kernel source tree.

It can be accessed online too:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/SubmittingPatches

You can submit your patches via GitHub

Licensing for new files:

OVH-Warp10-Datasource is licensed under Apache License Version 2.0 license. Anything contributed to OVH-Warp10-Datasource must be released under this license.

Developer Certificate of Origin:

To improve tracking of contributions to this project we will use a process modeled on the modified DCO 1.1 and use a "sign-off" procedure on patches that are being emailed around or contributed in any other way.

The sign-off is a simple line at the end of the explanation for the patch, which certifies that you wrote it or otherwise have the right to pass it on as an open-source patch. The rules are pretty simple: if you can certify the below:

By making a contribution to this project, I certify that:

(a) The contribution was created in whole or in part by me and I have the right to submit it under the open source license indicated in the file; or

(b) The contribution is based upon previous work that, to the best of my knowledge, is covered under an appropriate open source License and I have the right under that license to submit that work with modifications, whether created in whole or in part by me, under the same open source license (unless I am permitted to submit under a different license), as indicated in the file; or

(c) The contribution was provided directly to me by some other person who certified (a), (b) or (c) and I have not modified it.

(d) The contribution is made free of any other party's intellectual property claims or rights.

(e) I understand and agree that this project and the contribution are public and that a record of the contribution (including all personal information I submit with it, including my sign-off) is maintained indefinitely and may be redistributed consistent with this project or the open source license(s) involved.

then you just add a line saying

Signed-off-by: Random J Developer <[email protected]>

using your real name (sorry, no pseudonyms or anonymous contributions.)
