How to contribute to Django

One of the most gratifying aspects of open-source is seeing all the amazing contributions roll in from the community — the AUTHORS file mentions almost 60 names! We're eager to keep this level of community involvement going, so we've added some information on how to contribute to Django.

This document covers a number of points, including:

• General guidelines on how you can help out with Django development.
• Information on reporting security issues and our policies for dealing with any security holes that may be reported.
• Guidlines for submitting patches and requesting features.

We hope this will make it even easier for people to make the jump from Django users to Django developers — it's a wonderful community, so come on in!
