          <h3>Preliminaries</h3>

          <p>Before continuing to read this page, please read the
          general notes on <a href=
          "http://www.bluemarsh.com/java/contrib.html">contributing</a> to this or any project
          hosted on this site.</p>

          <h3>Revision Control</h3>

          <p>If you wish to get the very latest JSwat code, you will
          need a Subversion client. This is explained <a href= 
          "http://www.bluemarsh.com/java/subversion.html">elsewhere</a>. The JSwat code is
          available at the URL
          <code>http://www.bluemarsh.com/repos/jswat/trunk</code> and
          can be accessed using the following Subversion command:</p>
<pre>
$ svn co http://www.bluemarsh.com/repos/jswat/trunk -d jswat
</pre>

          <p>To get earlier versions of JSwat (the 1.x series), you
          will need a CVS client. This is explained <a href= 
          "http://www.bluemarsh.com/java/cvs.html">elsewhere</a>. Use the commands shown below
          to fetch all of the required source files.</p>
<pre>
$ cvs -d :pserver:cvs@bluemarsh.com:/home/cvs login
(password: &#39;cvs&#39;)
$ cvs -d :pserver:cvs@bluemarsh.com:/home/cvs co jswat
</pre>

          <h3>Making Changes</h3>

          <p>Generally if you want to make changes to JSwat, you will
          already know what you want to do. But if you are just looking
          to help out in any way, please check out the <a href= 
          "http://www.bluemarsh.com/bugzilla/index.html">bug database</a> to find open issues.
          Bugs that are not assigned to anyone can be worked on at any
          time. Assign the bug to yourself so others will know you are
          working on it. You will need to create a Bugzilla account
          before working on bugs.</p>

          <p>It is a good idea to send email to the jswat-dev mailing
          list to check if anyone else is making a similar change.</p>

          <h3>Verifying Quality</h3>

          <p>When making significant changes to JSwat it is important
          to take the time to verify that everything still works as
          expected. To this end, please utilize the test checklist
          documents, provided with the JSwat source code (in
          &quot;docs/test&quot;). These documents provide points to
          test and how to test them, for every feature in the
          program</p>

          <p>If you find a bug in JSwat then it may be worth your while
          to take a number of steps before fixing the problem. One,
          search the bug database to confirm that you have found a new
          bug. Two, test using an older release of JSwat to determine
          if this is a new bug. If so, then you need to fix it. If the
          bug is pre-existing, then simply log the bug in the database
          and it will be taken care of.</p>
