Hi All,

Welcome to the engine contributors forum. If you are interested on working on the LiveCode engine this is the place for you. It is the place to discuss engine development ideas with other community members, flesh out the approach you are going to take and find people to collaborate with.

Before posting we would recommend reading the contributors guide: http://www.runrev.com/links/livecode/contribute/

Once you have a firm idea of what you would like to do and have discussed it on this list we recommend subscribing to our engine contributors mailing list. This is for:

1) Developers who would like to show their development plan to RunRev engine development staff for feedback
2) Developers who are actively coding in the engine and have questions
3) Developers who have finished a project and wish to submit a pull request (Git)

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

We look forward very much to working with you all.

Warm regards,

The LiveCode engine development team.

I know I'm being a bit eager but... where is the engine contributors mailing list and how do I sign up? (I've seen the bit about emailing for write access). Haven't seen the list on the list server yet. :D

Oh wait, I guess it doesn't have the subscription information for the list. I just emailed the address provided and asked for post access so I didn't think about actually signing up for the list first :-)

@DarScott: We're still adding redirects from the old site structure to the new... The link above to the contribution doc can be found here:
http://livecode.com/community/contribute-to-livecode/

Caveat: That document needs significant updating, which we're hoping to do over the next week or so. If in doubt anything, just ask here :)
