These are the rules for contributing to Yage.

* Try not to break the build when you commit.
* If you add a new module, you are the copyright holder of that module, but you must release it under the Boost 1.0 license.
* If you add to someone else's module, you must release ownership of your changes and place them under the module owner's copyright. You should, however, add your name to the list of authors.
* If you contribute a majority of the code to someone else's module, and both parties agree, ownership/copyright of that module may be transfered.

Yage is released under the LGPL, which allows it to be used for closed-source games but also ensures that everyone benefits from improvements to Yage. However, new additions to Yage are placed under the Boost 1.0 license, since it is very liberal and compatible with almost every other license, should the license of Yage ever change.

This list of rules is open to suggestion, if you have better ideas.
