Specification development workflow

The simplest way to contribute to the Jisc Intelligent Campus data specifications is as follows:

  1. Add an issue to the issue tracker to alert everyone to what you are working on and why.
  2. Make an edit or add a file in this repository and save it to your own branch. If you prefer, you can fork the whole repository and work in your own version.
  3. Send a pull request once you're done.
  4. The change will be discussed by our team and either merged, or kept in the queue, depending on whether more work is required.

You can do all this through the Github GUI, but you're welcome to use any other git tool you prefer.
