| <h2>Introduction</h2> |
| <div class="divider"><span></span></div> |
| <p>Getting involved with the Apache OFBiz Community is <strong>easy!</strong></p> |
| <p>Apache OFBiz is an open source community project governed by rules and <a href="http://apache.org/foundation/policies/conduct.html" target="_blank">Code of Conduct</a> of <a href="http://apache.org/" target="_blank">the Apache Software Foundation.</a> All Apache projects value key concepts such as community, consensus, openness and transparency.</p> |
| <p>A popular Apache mantra is <strong>"Community over Code"</strong> meaning that being able to work and collaborate as a community is more important than producing code</p> |
| <p>The Apache OFBiz source code is free, open source and provided under the <a href="http://apache.org/licenses/">Apache Licence.</a> It is also easily accessible from the Apache source code repository. The project mailing lists contain all project releated discussions and decisions. </p> |

| <h3>We welcome non-developers!</h3> |
| <p>Don't worry if you are not a developer. You don't have to be a developer to contribute to the project.In fact we are always looking for a range of contributors including anyone that wants to help out with documentation, translations, testing tasks and UX experience design. </p> |
| <p><strong>Perhaps you are one of our OFBiz users? </strong> That's good too. You can help us by telling us about features you like (or don't like!) plus any new improvements that you'd like to see. So you see there are quite a few ways that non developers can help and contribute to improving OFBiz. </p> |
| <h3>Developers welcome too!</h3> |
| <p>Apache OFBiz is built on Java. If you are a developer or want to become one then you can help by <a href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/OFBiz+Tutorial+-+A+Beginners+Development+Guide" target="_blank">getting familiar with the OFBiz framework</a> and; |

| <h2>Reporting Bugs</h2> |
| <div class="divider"><span></span></div> |
| <p>All the bugs that we know about are recorded in our JIRA issue tracking system. Before creating a new issue, please check that the same bug hasn't already been reported. If it hasn't been reported then please create a new Jira issue. It is very important that you include as much detail as possible so that someone else can reproduce the bug easily. Our Jira system will automatically email our developer list where someone can take a look at it and investigate. </p> |

| <h2>Contributing Code and Bug Fixes</h2> |
| <div class="divider"><span></span></div> |
| <p>As an Apache open source project, we take the legality of code seriously and we don't want people contributing code that they don't own or a 3rd party having a legal claim on our project. This is why we ask all <a href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Apache+OFBiz+Contributors" target="_blank">OFBiz contributors </a> to complete an Individual Contributor Licence Agreement (ICLA)</p> |
| <h3>Code Changes</h3> |
| <p>If you are interested in contributing new code then you can submit patches to the project via <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/OFBIZ/summary" target="_blank">our JIRA Issue Tracker</a> |
| <ul class="iconsList"> |
| <li><i class="icon-pin"></i> Create a new issue that describes what the code you are contributing does and;</li> |
| <li><i class="icon-pin"></i> Upload a .patch file with your code changes </li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <h3>Fixing Bugs</h3> |
| <p>Bugs happen and you might see one and know how to fix it. |
| <ul class="iconsList"> |
| <li><i class="icon-pin"></i> Check our <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/OFBIZ/summary" target="_blank">our JIRA Issue Tracker</a> as the bug may have already been reported</li> |
| <li><i class="icon-pin"></i> If it is a new bug then please create a new <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/OFBIZ/summary" target="_blank">our JIRA Issue</a> </li> |
