+# Welcome to the Workers Of Eruta FLOSS project.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+## Welcome
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Everybody involved in this project would like welcome you and thank you for your
|
|
|
+interest in it. This project is brought to you with the hope that it will be
|
|
|
+useful to you, but without any warranty whatsoever. Please read the LICENSE
|
|
|
+for more details about this.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+If you, in turn, like this project, and would like to help out, then
|
|
|
+we would like to welcome you to this project as a contributor. There are several
|
|
|
+ways in which you can contribute. Contributions can consist of source code,
|
|
|
+patches, but also bug reports, documentation, suggestions, artwork, or
|
|
|
+other relevant material.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Everyone involved in this project would like you know that no matter who you are,
|
|
|
+no matter where you are from, no matter what your opinions or ideas are,
|
|
|
+we welcome your contributions to this project as long as they are in line with
|
|
|
+the project's goals.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+It is impossible to describe all the goals of this project here,
|
|
|
+but said in short, for this project the main goals are:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+1. Implement a MUD base in go language, which is ideal for server applications and easer than C to modify.
|
|
|
+2. Implement a MUD base with a license that unlike DIKU and it's descendents, allows it be used for pay-for-play MUDS.
|
|
|
+3. Implement the game of Workers of Eruta, wich is related to the Eruta game and world.
|
|
|
+4. WOE is a game by adults for adults, with some tastefully done adult contents. Less gore and teenage jokes than DIKU, more love.
|
|
|
+5. Make a game that is accessibe to the blind and other people with visual problems.
|
|
|
+6. Have fun while implementing WOE.
|
|
|
+7. Keep the code reasonably clean, but don't care about pedantry such as golint...

|
+## How to participate in this project
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Everyone involved in this project would like to welcome you to the virtual
|
|
|
+spaces associated to this project. To make sure this project remains
|
|
|
+a project that welcomes contributors, we would like to ask of you
|
|
|
+to follow the following rules in the project's virtual spaces when contributing:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+1. Stay on topic. Refrain from posting SPAM, trolling, irrelevant discussions, ...
|
|
|
+2. Obey the law. Refrain from death threats, harassment, theft, ...
|
|
|
+3. Behave like an adult. Refrain from personal attacks, dog piling, bullying...
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Any participation that is not in line with these rules may be removed or locked
|
|
|
+on a best effort basis by the maintainer(s). If you maliciously or repeatedly
|
|
|
+keep on disregarding these rules when participating, you may be temporarily
|
|
|
+or permanently banned from contributing to the project. This decision is made
|
|
|
+on a best effort basis by the maintainer(s).
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Naturally, these rules only apply within the context of the project.
|
|
|
+Your behavior outside of the project's virtual spaces will always be ignored.
|
|
|
+It cannot be used as a pretext to block your contributions or ban you from
|
|
|
+contributing. Like this we want to be welcoming to you even if you have
|
|
|
+unpopular opinions or made some mistakes in the past.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+## What to do in case of problems
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+If you feel that you are being treated unfairly, that your contribution is not
|
|
|
+being evaluated fairly, or if someone does not follow the rules mentioned above,
|
|
|
+contact the maintainer(s) of this project by posting an issue about it on the
|
|
|
+github issue tracker (sorry, too much spam in my e-mail). We will do our best
|
|
|
+to remedy the situation. Please keep in mind that many FLOSS projects are run
|
|
|
+by volunteers, so we do not always have the resources to answer you immediately.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+## How to contribute
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+When you make a contribution the maintainer(s) of this project or someone
|
|
|
+appointed by them will perform a review. We would like to let you know that we
|
|
|
+will do our best to review your contributions fairly, and only take into
|
|
|
+consideration relevant factors, such as compatibility with the goals of the
|
|
|
+project, the absence of technical errors, practical advantages, ....
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The review process may be quite intense and severely critical, but the goal of
|
|
|
+the review is to improve your contribution so it can be integrated into the
|
|
|
+project without problems. We will do our best to focus our criticism on the
|
|
|
+contribution itself.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+## How to become a maintainer
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+When it comes to the goals of this project, your suggestions are most welcome.
|
|
|
+But it is important to know that goals of this project are decided by this
|
|
|
+project's maintainer(s). By virtue of the time and effort they put in this
|
|
|
+project, they have earned the privilege of defining the project's goals.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+If you are interested in becoming a maintainer, we ask to please contact
|
|
|
+the current maintainer(s) to ask them how to achieve this. If so inclined, you
|
|
|
+may also fork this project and become the maintainer of that fork
|
|
|
+to develop it according to your own goals.
