Getting Started

===============
|

||
4 |
Drizzle values community contributions the same as core developer |
|
5 |
contributions. All contributions, regardless of their author, |
|
6 |
undergo the same rigorous testing and approval process before being |
|
7 |
merged into the main code base. |
|

The `Drizzle project <https://launchpad.net/drizzle>`_ is hosted on |
|
10 |
`Launchpad <https://launchpad.net/>`_ which handles code revision control, |
|
11 |
bug tracking, mailing lists, and everything else needed to manage the |
|
12 |
project. For most contributions, you will need a |
|
13 |
`Launchpad account <https://help.launchpad.net/YourAccount/NewAccount>`_. |
|

Bazaar
|
|
16 |
------
|
|
17 |
||
18 |
Launchpad uses `Bazaar (bzr) <http://bazaar.canonical.com/>`_ for revision |
|
19 |
control of the source repositories which includes code and documentation. |
|
20 |
If you are not comfortable with :program:`bzr`, begin by reading the |
|
21 |
`Bazaar documentation <http://doc.bazaar.canonical.com/>`_. You can |
|
22 |
practice working with :program:`bzr` branches using your Launchpad account. |
