====== Contributing to the Etherboot Project ======

Etherboot is a volunteer project. Many kind people have contributed in various ways, see the [[acknowledgements]]. You can help in various ways:

  * Improve the documentation. Edit the wiki or send us changes if you feel something is missing or can be improved.
  * Try different variations on configurations and software. Send us the documentation or a link to your Web page when you have succeeded, of course.
  * Spread the word about network booting wherever you see a situation which could use the technique.
  * Write articles about your experiences with applications of netbooting for conferences, journals or e-zines.
  * Contribute any related software which can be put into ''contrib/''.
  * Write drivers for more cards. See the [[http://etherboot.org/wiki/dev/netdriverapi|here]] and [[http://etherboot.org/wiki/soc/2008/mdeck/notes/gpxe_driver_api|here]] for API documentation. r8169.c is a good example driver
  * Offer to make EPROMs for people needing them
  * Help us close some open tickets in the [[http://support.etherboot.org/|bugtracker]]
  * Develop useful features and submit patches to the developers' mailing list. It will certainly help to be familiar with [[http://www.etherboot.org/wiki/staging|Staging]] to understand the review and merge process.
