# Contributing to this project

This distribution is maintained by e-mail.  There is no public issue
tracker and no pull requests; send everything to the author, whose address
is in the AUTHOR section of the module documentation and in META.yml.

## Reporting a bug

Please include a minimal, self-contained script that reproduces the
problem, the version of the distribution, the output of `perl -V`, and
your operating system and file system.  A report that can be run as-is is
worth more than a long description.

## Sending a patch

Ask first before starting anything large -- a new feature, a refactoring,
a port to another environment.  It costs you one e-mail and can save you a
lot of work on something that will not be merged.

Send a unified diff (`diff -u`) against the latest release.  One patch per
logical change: a patch that fixes a bug and reformats three files at the
same time is hard to review and will be sent back.  Please include a test
that fails before the patch and passes after it.

Follow the conventions already used in the code: indentation, the style of
the surrounding comments, and the Perl version the distribution supports.
The distribution ships its own test suite; please make sure it still
passes before you send anything.

**IMPORTANT**: By submitting a patch, you agree to allow the project owner
to license your work under the same license as that used by the project.
