However please be aware of some restrictions: + +* This is backup software, it needs to be simple and reliable. +* Almost all of the code is in C++ for performance. +* The code is portable (cross-platform) and must remain so. +* We have limited capacity to review contributions or respond to emails, so it may take a while. +* We prefer not to add complexity where possible, especially if it can be done in a separate process via an interface. +* All contributions must be dual-licensed BSD and GPL (can be used under either license). +* Please follow the [coding style](https://www.boxbackup.org/wiki/CodingStyle). +* Please use Github pull requests where possible. + +More information is available on our [Developers Documentation](https://www.boxbackup.org/wiki/DevelopersDocs) page. |
