It is the +main method of interaction for Buildroot users and developers. ++ +Only subscribers to the Buildroot mailing list are allowed to post to +this list. You can subscribe via the +http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/buildroot[mailing list info +page]. ++ +Mails that are sent to the mailing list are also available in the +http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot[mailing list archives] and +via http://gmane.org[Gmane], at +http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.uclibc.buildroot[+gmane.comp.lib.uclibc.buildroot+]. +Please search the mailing list archives before asking questions, since +there is a good chance someone else has asked the same question before. + +IRC:: ++ +The Buildroot IRC channel irc://freenode.net/#buildroot[#buildroot] is +hosted on http://webchat.freenode.net[Freenode]. It is a useful place to +ask quick questions or discuss on certain topics. ++ +When asking for help on IRC, share relevant logs or pieces of code +using a code sharing website, such as http://code.bulix.org. ++ +Note that for certain questions, posting to the mailing list may be +better as it will reach more people, both developers and users. + +Bug tracker:: ++ +Bugs in Buildroot can be reported via the mailing list or alternatively +via the https://bugs.busybox.net/buglist.cgi?product=buildroot[Buildroot +bugtracker]. Please refer to xref:reporting-bugs[] before creating a bug +report. + +Wiki:: ++ +http://elinux.org/Buildroot[The Buildroot wiki page] is hosted on +the http://elinux.org[eLinux] wiki. It contains some useful links, an +overview of past and upcoming events, and a TODO list. + +Patchwork:: ++ +Patchwork is a web-based patch tracking system designed to facilitate +the contribution and management of contributions to an open-source +project. Patches that have been sent to a mailing list are \'caught' by +the system, and appear on a web page. Any comments posted that +reference the patch are appended to the patch page too. For more +information on Patchwork see +http://jk.ozlabs.org/projects/patchwork/[]. ++ +Buildroot's Patchwork website is mainly for use by Buildroot's +maintainer to ensure patches aren't missed. It is also used by Buildroot +patch reviewers (see also xref:apply-patches-patchwork[]). +However, since the website exposes patches and their corresponding +review comments in a clean and concise web interface, it can be useful +for all Buildroot developers. ++ +The Buildroot patch management interface is available at +http://patchwork.buildroot.org[].
