Opening an issue

If you find a bug in the proxy code or an inaccuracy in the documentation, please open an issue. GitHub provides a guide, Mastering Issues, that is useful if you are unfamiliar with the process. Here are the specific steps for opening an issue:

  1. Go to the project issues page on GitHub.
  2. Click the green New Issue button located in the upper right corner.
  3. In the title field, write a single phrase that identifies your issue.
  4. In the main editor, describe your issue.
  5. Click the submit button.

Thank you. We will do our best to triage your issue within one business day, and attempt to categorize your issues with an estimate of the priority and issue type. We will try to respond with regular updates based on its priority:

  • Critical respond and update daily, resolve with a week
  • High respond and update weekly, resolve within six weeks
  • Medium respond and update every three months, best effort resolution
  • Low respond and update every six months, best effort resolution

The priority we assign will be roughly a function of the number of users we expect to be impacted, as well as its severity. As a rule of thumb:

Severity Number of users
Handful Some Most All
Easy, obvious workaround Low Low Medium High
Non-obvious workaround available Low Medium High Critical
Functionality blocked High High Critical Critical

Contributor License Agreements

Open-source software licensing is a wonderful arrangement that benefits everyone, but in an imperfect world, we all need to exercise some legal prudence. In order to protect you, Google, and most of all, everyone who comes to depend on these libraries, we require that all contributors sign our short and human-readable Contributor License Agreement (CLA). We don't want to open the door to patent trolls, predatory lawyers, or anyone else who isn't on board with creating value and making the world a better place. We hope you will agree that the CLA offers very important protection and is easy to understand. Take a moment to read it carefully, and if you agree with what you read, please sign it now. If you believe you've already signed the appropriate CLA already for this or any other Google open-source project, you shouldn't have to do so again. You can review your signed CLAs at cla.developers.google.com/clas.

First, check that you are signed in to a Google Account that matches your local Git email address. Then choose one of the following:

  • If you are an individual writing original source code and you own the intellectual property, sign the Individual CLA.
  • If you work for a company that wants to allow you to contribute, sign the Corporate CLA.

You (and your authorized signer, if corporate) can sign the CLA electronically. After that, we'll be able to accept your contributions.
