For more information, as well as an immediately useable, binary version of the Byt3coin client sofware,
Byt3coin is released under the terms of the MIT license. See COPYING for more
information or see http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.
Developers work in their own trees, then submit pull requests when they think their feature or bug fix is ready.
If it is a simple/trivial/non-controversial change, then one of the Byt3coin development team members simply pulls it.
If it is a more complicated or potentially controversial change, then the patch submitter will be asked to start a discussion with the devs and community.
The patch will be accepted if there is broad consensus that it is a good thing.
Developers should expect to rework and resubmit patches if the code doesn't
match the project's coding conventions (see doc/coding.txt) or are
controversial.
The master branch is regularly built and tested, but is not guaranteed to be
completely stable. [Tags](https://github.com/byt3coin-project/xxxxxx are created
regularly to indicate new official, stable release versions of Byt3coin.
Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull requests than we can review and test. Please be patient and help out, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people lots of money.
Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to submit new unit tests for old code. see required dep at bottom of README.md
