The [developer mailing list][dev-ml-list] is the main channel of communication for contributors. There are some guidelines which will make applying PRs easier for us: -+ No tabs! Please use spaces for indentation. -+ Respect the [code style][code-style]. ++ The Maven Codestyle uses spaces instead of spaces. This way column numbers + don't depend on the IDE settings and will be the same for everyone. ++ By using the same [codestyle][code-style], patches should only highlight the actual + difference, not being disturbed by any formatting issues. + Create minimal diffs - disable on save actions like reformat source code or organize imports. If you feel the source code should be reformatted create a separate PR for this change.
