Philosophy

• Sample Ownership and Copyright Licenses

  • the community creates the samples and the project retains ownership of the samples
  • the community curates the samples and licenses the samples under the project license
    • all samples are distributed under the root project license
    • A copyright line may be added if you contribute a change of more than 10 lines

• Writing good samples:

  • A good sample shows how to do one thing and only one thing at a time.
  • A good sample follows good and consistent code style see: pep8.
  • When arbitrary choices are made, a good sample chooses the simplest default.
  • Samples must be willing to teach programming as well as the API!

Code Style

Please conform to pep8 standards. Check your code by running the pep8 tool. https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pep8
