1 # The Exim Project does not use GitHub Issues
3 Hey, we want your input, but we want to make sure that we actually see it and
4 that your help is not wasted, so please read this.
6 The GitHub repo exists for convenience for some folks, and to host our Wiki.
7 The Git repo is an automated clone of our real repo over at
8 <https://git.exim.org/exim.git>.
10 Sometimes a maintainer will take a look at GitHub pull requests, just because
11 we care about the software and want to know about issues, but expect long
12 delays. It's not a really supported workflow.
14 Our bug-tracker takes code-patches and is the place to go:
15 <https://bugs.exim.org/>
17 If you've found a security bug, then please email <security@exim.org>.
18 All Exim Maintainers can and do use PGP.
19 Keyring: <https://ftp.exim.org/pub/exim/Exim-Maintainers-Keyring.asc>
20 We don't have a re-encrypting mailer, just encrypt to all of them please.
22 ## If this is too much hassle ...
24 We do periodically get around to checking GitHub Pull Requests.
25 It just won't be fast.
27 Patches should update the documentation, `doc/doc-docbook/spec.xfpt`; if you
28 like, just provide the plaintext which should go in there and we can mark it
31 If it's a whole new feature, then please guard it with a build
32 option `EXPERIMENTAL_FOO`; docs are in plaintext in
33 `doc/doc-txt/experimental-spec.txt`.
35 If you're feeling particularly thorough, these files get updated too:
36 * `doc/doc-txt/ChangeLog` : all changes; workflow pre-dates Git
37 * `doc/doc-txt/NewStuff` : if it's a change in intended behavior which postmasters should read
38 * `doc/doc-txt/OptionLists.txt` : (we usually defer this until cutting a release)
39 * `src/README.UPDATING` : if you're breaking backwards compatibility
