Rich Ajax Platform (RAP)      

Contributing to RAP development

We welcome contributions to the RAP project. Contributions can be newsgroup posts, entering qualified bugreports, providing patches, or even contributing to the development with extra components or in the main stream. Please send a message to the rap-dev@eclipse.org mailing list if you would like to contribute in one of the latter categories.

Sandbox

The sandbox is a place at RAP where we make interesting /promising developments visible and accessible for the complete community. The community can evaluate and use the code by checking it out from CVS. Only the developers that contributed the code will take care of newsgroup / mailing list questions and bugzilla bugs. The sandbox content is not released with any of the RAP builds! If functionality from the sandbox is broadly used by the community, is mature and meets the necessary quality standards we will move it out of the sandbox into the main development stream.
