|
|
|
+======================
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+To make a contribution to a TianoCore project, follow these steps.
|
|
|
+1. Create a change description in the format specified below to
|
|
|
+ use in the source control commit log.
|
|
|
+2. Your commit message must include your "Signed-off-by" signature,
|
|
|
+ and "Contributed-under" message.
|
|
|
+3. Your "Contributed-under" message explicitly states that the
|
|
|
+ contribution is made under the terms of the specified
|
|
|
+ contribution agreement. Your "Contributed-under" message
|
|
|
+ must include the name of contribution agreement and version.
|
|
|
+ For example: Contributed-under: TianoCore Contribution Agreement 1.0
|
|
|
+ The "TianoCore Contribution Agreement" is included below in
|
|
|
+ this document.
|
|
|
+4. Submit your code to the TianoCore project using the process
|
|
|
+ that the project documents on its web page. If the process is
|
|
|
+ not documented, then submit the code on development email list
|
|
|
+ for the project.
|
|
|
+5. It is preferred that contributions are submitted using the same
|
|
|
+ copyright license as the base project. When that is not possible,
|
|
|
+ then contributions using the following licenses can be accepted:
|
|
|
+ * BSD (2-clause): http://opensource.org/licenses/BSD-2-Clause
|
|
|
+ * BSD (3-clause): http://opensource.org/licenses/BSD-3-Clause
|
|
|
+ * MIT: http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT

|
|
+ * Python-2.0: http://opensource.org/licenses/Python-2.0
|
|
|
+ * Zlib: http://opensource.org/licenses/Zlib
|
|
|
+ For documentation: https://www.freebsd.org/copyright/freebsd-doc-license.html
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Contributions of code put into the public domain can also be
|
|
|
+ accepted.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Contributions using other licenses might be accepted, but further
|
|
|
+ review will be required.
