* When submitting changes, you agree that your code will be licensed under GPLv3 * When submitting changes, you confirm that your code is licensed under the terms of the [GNU General Public License v3](https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.html).
* Please test (compile and run) your code before you submit changes!!! * Please test (compile and run) your code before you submit changes! Ideally, provide test feedback in the PR description. Untested code will **not** be merged!
* Try to figure out you selves why CI fails, or why a merge request collides * Try to figure out yourself why builds on our CI fail.
* Please maintain your code after you contributed it. * Make sure your PR is up-to-date with the rest of the code. Often, a simple click on "Update branch" will do the job, but if not, you are asked to merge the master branch manually and resolve the problems on your own. That will make the maintainers' jobs way easier.
* Respond yourselves if someone request changes or notifies issues * Please show intention to maintain your features and code after you contributed it. Unmaintained code is a hassle for the core developers, and just adds work. If you do not intend to maintain features you contributed, please think again about sumission, or clearly state that in the description of your PR.
* Respond yourselves if someone requests changes or otherwise raises issues about your PRs.
