Issue Tracker

-------------
|
|
|
|
If you've found a bug or have a concrete feature request, please create a new
|
|
ticket on the project's `issue tracker`_.
|
|
|
|
For more general questions or discussions, IRC or mailing list are preferred.
|
|
|
|

Bounties and Fundraisers
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
We use `BountySource <https://www.bountysource.com/teams/borgbackup>`_ to allow
|
|
monetary contributions to the project and the developers, who push it forward.
|
|
|
|
There, you can give general funds to the borgbackup members (the developers will
|
|
then spend the funds as they deem fit). If you do not have some specific bounty
|
|
(see below), you can use this as a general way to say "Thank You!" and support
|
|
the software / project you like.
|
|
|
|
If you want to encourage developers to fix some specific issue or implement some
|
|
specific feature suggestion, you can post a new bounty or back an existing one
|
|
(they always refer to an issue in our `issue tracker`_).
|
|
|
|
As a developer, you can become a Bounty Hunter and win bounties (earn money) by
|
|
contributing to |project_name|, a free and open source software project.
|
|
|
|
We might also use BountySource to fund raise for some bigger goals.
