Mailing List
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Glade-3 discussion takes place on glade-devel@ximian.org
To subscribe or to consult archives visit
http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/glade-devel
When posting to the list include [glade3] in the subject,
since the list is also used for Glade-2 developement.


Bugzilla
~~~~~~~~
Glade-3 bugs are tracked in the glade3 module of 
http://bugzilla.gnome.org


SVN
~~~
The Glade-3 repository is hosted at svn.gnome.org
To check out a copy of Glade-3 you can use the following commands:

svn checkout svn://svn.gnome.org/svn/glade3 glade3


Patches
~~~~~~~
Patches must be in the unified format (diff -u) and must include a
ChangeLog entry. Please send all patches to bugzilla.

Currently svn only permits this with the following command:

svn diff --diff-cmd=/usr/bin/diff -x -uBp . > file.patch

Coding Style
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Code in Glade-3 should follow the GNOME Programming Guidelines
(http://developer.gnome.org/doc/guides/programming-guidelines/),
basically this means being consistent with the sorrounding code.
The only exception is that we prefer having braces always on a new line
e.g.:

if (...)
{
	...
}

Note however that a lot of the current codebase still uses the following
style:

if (...) {
	...
}

Over time we'll migrate to the preferred form.

Naming conventions:
- function names should be lowercase and prefixed with the
  file name (or, if the function is static and the name too long,
  with an abbreviation), e.g:
  glade_project_window_my_function () 
  gpw_my_loooooooooong_named_fuction ()
- variable names should be lowercase and be short but self explanatory;
  if you need more than one word use an underscore, e.g:
  my_variable

Also try to order your functions so that prototypes are not needed.
