We are striving to ensure the ga-worldwind-suite is a high-quality and usable suite of tools. If you find any bugs/issues with the tools, or would like to see new features added, please report them via the issue tracker here. Better yet, implement the changes yourself and then open a pull request.
Please note that your bug/issue/feature may already be registered in the issue tracker. Please take a quick look before you raise a ticket to make sure you aren't duplicating an existing issue. For a good guide on writing effective issue reports, see Allan McRae's blog post "How to file a bug report".
The ga-worldwind-suite is completely open source and we encourage developers to contribute to the codebase and documentation in any way they can. The project is being managed using the standard "fork+pull" model described here.
Some ideas for how to contribute include:
- Find a bug/issue in the issue tracker and fix it!
- Implement a feature you would like to see
- Add some unit tests to the test suite
- Help create technical documentation and developer guides to make it easier for future developers to get involved
Of course, you are also welcome to fork the repository and go in your own direction. It's up to you.
