| 4 | The developers live on class `barnowl` on the `ATHENA.MIT.EDU` zephyr realm. That's usually the fastest way to reach us. We also use the `barnowl-dev@mit.edu` mailing list for discussion and code review. If you have an Athena account, you can add yourself directly; Otherwise, send us an email or contact `nelhage@mit.edu` to be added. |

| 6 | A few of us also hang out in `#barnowl` on `irc.freenode.net`, but it's not used very much. |

| 10 | Patches should be sent to `barnowl-dev@mit.edu`. For small changes, inline patches are fine, but for anything larger, please create a git repository somewhere (Forking on [http://github.com/nelhage/barnowl/ github] is trivial, if you don't already have a server set up) and send us a pointer to that repository. |

| 13 | We hand out commit bits to the main barnowl repository fairly liberally, but apply a [wiki:code-review pre-commit code review] policy for developers with commit bits. |
