Community roles

Our definition of "the LedgerSMB community" is to include

  • Those who create the software: Developers, Testers, Translators, Packagers
  • Those who help others use (set up, configure, administer) the software: Contributors
  • Those who test and use the software: Users

 

This definition does not include those who sell LedgerSMB (related) services and products (in their role of seller). If we include those in the definition, we'd call that "the LedgerSMB ecosystem".

Within this community, we live by the Ubuntu code of conduct. Apart from that, there are no restrictions on becoming a community member in the role of any of the above. Simply join one of the mailing lists and submit your contributions.

A listing of people who have contributed at one time or another can be found in the CONTRIBUTORS file which may be found in the source distribution archive or in the source code repository.
