== Development ==
 
 
 
The most important things for the GNUstep developer to know are:
 
* [https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=gnustep The bug tracker]
 
* [[Using Subversion]] to access the source-code repository
 
* The [[#Mailing Lists|mailing lists]] to communicate with other developers
 
* [https://savannah.gnu.org/task/?group=gnustep The tasks tracker] for things that need to be done
 
 
 
Some other places might be relevant, though they seem to be rarely used and might be deprecated at some point in the future:
 
* [https://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?group=gnustep The patches page]
 
 
 
== Mailing Lists ==
 
 
 
You can sign up for the following mailing lists to ask questions and get answers. GNUstep mailing lists are being archived and made searchable, just click on the links below. Alternatively, most of them are also archived at [http://www.nabble.com/GNUstep-f1880.html Nabble] and [http://news.gmane.org/search.php?match=gnustep GMANE]. You can also post questions there which will get forwarded to the corresponding mailing list.
 
 
 
The most relevant lists are:
 
 
 
* [http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnustep discuss-gnustep@gnu.org]
 
: This is the most active list for all general discussions and questions. We also would like to hear about ideas for applications for the GNUstep environment and related issues.
 
 
 
* [http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev gnustep-dev@gnu.org]
 
: This mailing list has been established to keep the noise low when it comes to core topics and generally boring discussions about technical aspects of GNUstep.
 
 
 
* [http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-gnustep bug-gnustep@gnu.org]
 
: A mailing list for submitting bug reports and patches. Reports filed in the bug tracker are also sent here.
 
 
 
* [http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnustep info-gnustep@gnu.org]
 
: For infos and announcements related to GNUstep libraries and applications.
 
 
 
* [http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/apps-gnustep apps-gnustep@gnu.org]
 
: For discussions related to GNUstep applications.
 
 
 
* [http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnustep help-gnustep@gnu.org]
 
: For help with GNUstep libraries and applications. This list is rarely read, so it is better to use discuss-gnustep.
 
 
 
* [http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-webmasters gnustep-webmasters@gnustep.org]
 
: For comments and discussions about GNUstep web pages.
