### 1.7 Mailing lists and support ¶

#### 1.7.1 How to get help ¶

The starting point for all bug reports, feature requests and support questions is the SourceForge Blitz++ project web page, at http://sourceforge.net/projects/blitz. From this page, you can click on the Support link to browse previous Blitz++ support requests or make your own request.

There is also a Lists link that provides access to and lets you search the blitz mailing list archives. This will often turn up answers to your question if it has been asked before. Finally, if you continue to experience a problem with using Blitz++, there is a Bugs link that allows you to file a bug report and check the status of existing bug reports.

#### 1.7.2 How to subscribe to a mailing list ¶

The main mailing list for Blitz++ support questions and information is blitz-support@lists.sourceforge.net. Anyone is free to post a question to this list, although the list is moderated. You can subscribe to the list via the Lists link on the SourceForge Blitz++ project page, http://sourceforge.net/projects/blitz. Besides the main support list, there is also a `blitz-devel` list for comments or questions about future development of Blitz++ and a `blitz-cvs` list that sends notification of changes to the Blitz++ cvs repository. These lists generally have far less traffic than the `blitz-support` list.

#### 1.7.3 blitz-devel ¶

Blitz++ is in open development: anyone can contribute features and code to the library. If you are interested in helping out with coding or porting, you should start by subscribing to the `blitz-devel` mailing list.

This list is also an appropriate place to send suggestions for features; just send email to blitz-devel@lists.sourceforge.net. We can’t implement it if you don’t suggest it.

Archives of this list are available from the Blitz++ web site.

#### 1.7.4 blitz-support ¶

This mailing list is for posting and answering questions about using the Blitz++ library. Anyone can post questions; anyone can answer.
