We welcome contributions, but request you follow these guidelines.
Please raise any bug reports on the relevant project's issue tracker. Be sure to search the list to see if your issue has already been raised.
A good bug report is one that make it easy for us to understand what you were trying to do and what went wrong.
Provide as much context as possible so we can try to recreate the issue.
For feature requests, please raise a Github issue.
If you want to raise a pull-request with a new feature, or a refactoring of existing code, it may well get rejected if you haven't discussed it in a Github issue.
