Contributing Documentation

Before undertaking a documentation task, you should join the BRL-CAD developer mailing list (http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/brlcad-devel) and the #brlcad IRC channel irc.freenode.net.

Joining both lists helps introduce you the the BRL-CAD community and gives you the opportunity to regularly communicate with other experienced contributors. You can also ask questions on the mailing list or the IRC channel.

BRL-CAD contributors have a set of rules that they try to respect and follow to enable collaboration and communication. We strongly encourage new contributors to be creative and to be specific when asking questions on the mailing list or on the IRC channel. We also strongly advise you to use interleaved posting when replying on any communication channels. And once again, don’t be afraid to ask questions.
