Popping in to #gentoo-infra and chatting with the folks there may get |
| 17 |
you a faster response. |

As far as I know, we accept pull requests from the GitHub mirror *or* a |
| 20 |
standard `git format-patch` e-mail. |

We do have a social contract[1] which indicates that we will not depend |
| 23 |
on proprietary software. That said, the GitHub mirror is there for |
| 24 |
convenience; I'm betting part of why we use it on the side is because it |
| 25 |
already meshes well with Git to begin with and can be a good 'gateway' |
| 26 |
for new contributors. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
We also accept patches on the gentoo-dev ML or (depending on the |
| 29 |
developer) personal e-mails or Bugzilla bugs. You might want to check |
| 30 |
out a few pages on the wiki regarding how we handle contributions, or |
| 31 |
pop in #gentoo-proxy-maint on Freenode. |
