Introduction

Generally, we coordinate the overall flow on the SpamAssassin-Users and SpamAssassin-Dev [MailingLists]. Then, for specific new functionality or rules, a \[http://bugzilla.spamassassin.org/ Bugzilla bug\] should be created to track progress and provide a forum for discussion; any patches should be stored (as an attachment) on that Bugzilla bug.

The code itself is maintained in a \[http://subversion.tigris.org/ Subversion\] repository which can be browsed via \[http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/spamassassin/ HTTP\] and WebDAV.  Replace the _http_ scheme with _webdav_ to browse the repository -- [MoinMoin] doesn't like webdav-links.  A \[http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/spamassassin/trunk/?root=Apache-SVN ViewCVS view\] is available.

There are also \[http://svn.apache.org/snapshots/spamassassin/ snapshots\] of the current development tree available.
