Each Center member can access the following resources:

  1. Center Board with membership in Center Group with posting privileges
  2. Center Issues tracker with membership in the BlackBox Component Builder with the Developer status.
  3. BlackBox Framework Center organization in GitHub with privileges of owner

If you are a Center member and can not access any of these resources, please notify the Chair or forum administrator.

Access to these resources allows Center members to use the bug fixing pipeline:

  1. Create the issue in the Center Issues tracker and get the unique issue number N.
  2. Create the branch with GitHub online interface with name "issue-#N" (see image bellow)
  3. Create the topic in the issues discussion section of the Center Board with full description of the problem and your solution if such exists

Further actions need Center members for discussion and coding, Chair for creating the voting. After the positive voting the topic branch should be merged with master branch in web-interface of GitHub.

Before voting

Before voting about any issue-#N it is good to have a trial version of BlackBox with all fixes. For doing this you need to work with Git a bit:

  1. clone the repository from GitHub,
  2. switch to branch "issue-#N",
  3. make changes and commit them with some message containing description + "Refs. #N."
  4. push this commit to repository

More information can be found here: How to develop with Git.

Then The BlackBox Build Engine will prepare a demo BlackBox automatically here: http://blackboxframework.org/unstable

However this work is not necessary, you can just post the annotated solution in the forum and the admin of Chair will execute this.
