| Getting involved |
| ================ |
| |
| Like any open source project, Buildroot has different ways to share |
| information in its community and outside. |
| |
| One piece of it is the document you are currently reading ;-). |
| |
| Each of those ways may interest you if you are looking for some help, |
| want to understand Buildroot or contribute to the project. |
| |
| Mailing List |
| ------------ |
| |
| Buildroot has a mailing list |
| http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot[] for discussion and |
| development. |
| |
| [[mailing-list-subscribe]] |
| |
| Subscribing to the mailing list |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| |
| You can subscribe by visiting |
| http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/buildroot[]. |
| Only subscribers to the Buildroot mailing list are allowed to post to |
| this list. |
| |
| The list is also available through _Gmane_ http://gmane.org[], at |
| +gmane.comp.lib.uclibc.buildroot+ |
| http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.uclibc.buildroot[]. |
| |
| Searching the List Archives |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| |
| Please search the mailing list archives before asking questions on the |

| annoying everyone on the list with frequently asked questions... |
