Bug Reporting

Bugs should be reported to the GNOME bug tracking system.

You will need an email address to register (if you haven't already) before you can use the system to file a new bug report.

There are guidelines for reporting new bugs. Try to make sure you follow them, so we can help you much more effectively. The use of keywords also helps us prioritize bugs.

Mailing Lists

For archives and information on how to subscribe, see the list of mailing lists available.

Wiki

We have a Wiki for drafting, designing and proposing GTK+ development available at http://live.gnome.org/GTK+.

Meetings

As regularly as possible, GTK+ team meetings take place in the #gtk-devel IRC channel on irc.gnome.org. Anyone is welcome to join the meeting to listen in and follow the progress of the GTK+ project. All meetings are recorded and available dating back to early 2004.

#gtk-devel is only used for GTK+ team meetings, and should not be used to ask general questions about GTK+. For all other IRC communication, #gtk+ is used.

Where's the Source?

You can clone the source code repository using git. Instructions on how to use bleeding edge versions of GTK+ are available on the download page.
