=== Maintaining documentation ===

The documentation for the !NetarchiveSuite software is maintained for both the current stable branch, and the development branch. The document ["Maintaining Documentation"] describes the steps necessary for transferring the development branch documentation to the stable branch, when making a stable release.

=== Making a release ===

There are several things to do when we make a release. Please see the page on ReleaseProcedures for further information.

The NetarchiveSuite system is continuously under development at the Royal Library and the State Library in Denmark. While we have our own priorities and needs in connection with our harvests, we are interested in working together with other users to improve the system.

The [:Developer Manual:Developer_Manual] is the main piece of description of how to contribute. If you read it and follow the suggestions therein, you will not only make it easier to get your changes to NetarchiveSuite be accepted into the main distribution, you will also likely improve the quality of your code overall.

To follow the latest developments, go to [https://gforge.statsbiblioteket.dk/scm/?group_id=7 the SVN repository]. Technical questions can be posted to the [https://gforge.statsbiblioteket.dk/forum/forum.php?forum_id=6 developer forum].

Design discussions

NetarchiveSuite supports [:Development/Plugins:plug-ins] in the form of specifying class files to use for particular parts. We intend to expand the number of places plug-ins can be used and the way they can be configured.

NetarchiveSuite [:Development/Settingsstructure:settings structure] has been discussed. Basically the current structure of settings is difficult to use and does not meet our needs.

Assignments

Assignments have not yet been generally moved to from our internal wiki to this wiki, but new assignments will show up here until we get the rest moved.
