## Guidelines
Follow the [Style Guidelines].
When adding a string that will be shown on IRC, always internationalize
it (wrap it in a call to `_()`).
When making a trivial change to an internationalized string that does not
affect the meaning of the string (typo fix, etc.), please update the
`msgid` entry in localization file. It helps preserve the translation
without the translator having to review it.
Last rule: you shouldn't add a mandatory dependency. Limnoria does not
come with any (besides Python), so please try to keep all dependencies
optional.

## Sending patches
When you send a pull request, **send it to the testing branch**.
It will be merged to master when it's considered to be stable enough to be
supported.
Don't fear that you spam Limnoria by sending many pull requests. According
to @ProgVal, it's easier for them to accept pull requests than to
cherry-pick everything manually.
Having at least one test case in any non-trivial pull-request
is very appreciated.
