I do not see a need to change something to the web site. There is a title "Contributing" on the home page of the ant.apache.org web site. To sum up : the preferred way is that you create a bug report in bugzilla, with as an attachment the output of cvs diff -u concerning existing source files, plus any new files as a tar file. There is a build file called patch.xml in the root directory of ant's source distribution, which can be used to prepare a patch file for existing files. But maybe you should tell us also which function you want to cover with your task. Depending on whether this function is really of general interest or just covering a very specific functional area, the new task should be added to ant or added to another open source project containing ant tasks. Cheers, Antoine

May I suggest two things: 1. Put the info on making submissions right up front on the Ant home page where no one can possibly miss it. 2. In the footnote at the bottm that tells how to unsubscribe from this list, add a line with "Submission Guidelines" - a hyperlink to the submission info on the web page. -----Original Message----- From: Miguel Griffa [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 18, 2003 11:44 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Probably a FAQ: how to contribute a task Hi all I was wondering if someone could give me a hint on how this process is. I'm probably going to write a task which I think would be usefull to have in ant. sould I write it and just send it to the list? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
