StepMania is an open-source project. This page contains information for software developers interested in working on StepMania.
Getting Started
Anyone is welcome to contribute to StepMania. We suggest you start by subscribing to the stepmania-devs mailing list (details below). If you have features that you would like to work on adding to StepMania, please send your ideas for feedback to the stepmania-devs mailing list.
Please do not send feature requests to the mailing list unless you're working on the feature yourself. We have a forum for feature requests.
In general, we don't give our CVS commit access until you have a change or feature close to ready for checkin. If you're discussing your idea on the mailing list, just ask for commit access when you're close to ready for checkin.
