Its target audience is its own developers. As such, we have limited interest in feature requests from non-contributors. + +That said, please do file any bugs you find, keeping the following in mind: + +* One issue per bug. Putting multiple things in the same issue makes both discussion and completion unnecessarily complicated. +* No build issues (or other support requests.) If the Travis CI is green, the build problem is most likely on your side. Work it out locally, or ask on IRC. + ## Feature policy As a labor of love, Serenity is strongly user-focused. When proposing or building a new feature, you should start by imagining how a person would use it. Like a tree falling in the woods with nobody around, does a feature with no user impact really provide value? |
