HOW TO CONTRIBUTE TO OpenSSL ---------------------------- - Development is coordinated on the openssl-dev mailing list (see - http://www.openssl.org for information on subscribing). If you - would like to submit a patch, send it to openssl-bugs@openssl.org with - the string "[PATCH]" in the subject. Please be sure to include a - textual explanation of what your patch does. - - If you are unsure as to whether a feature will be useful for the general - OpenSSL community please discuss it on the openssl-dev mailing list first. - Someone may be already working on the same thing or there may be a good - reason as to why that feature isn't implemented. - - Patches should be as up to date as possible, preferably relative to the - current Git or the last snapshot. They should follow the coding style of - OpenSSL and compile without warnings. Some of the core team developer targets - can be used for testing purposes, (debug-steve64, debug-geoff etc). OpenSSL - compiles on many varied platforms: try to ensure you only use portable - features. - - Note: For legal reasons, contributions from the US can be accepted only - if a TSU notification and a copy of the patch are sent to crypt@bis.doc.gov - (formerly BXA) with a copy to the ENC Encryption Request Coordinator; - please take some time to look at - http://www.bis.doc.gov/Encryption/PubAvailEncSourceCodeNofify.html [sic] - and - http://w3.access.gpo.gov/bis/ear/pdf/740.pdf (EAR Section 740.13(e)) - for the details. If "your encryption source code is too large to serve as - an email attachment", they are glad to receive it by fax instead; hope you - have a cheap long-distance plan. - - Our preferred format for changes is "diff -u" output. You might - generate it like this: - - # cd openssl-work - # [your changes] - # ./Configure dist; make clean - # cd .. - # diff -ur openssl-orig openssl-work > mydiffs.patch - + See CONTRIBUTING
