Contributing

There's more to running a distribution than just writing code.

To contribute to the EvolutionOS packages repository, start by reading the CONTRIBUTING document in the evolution-packages GitHub repository.

To contribute to this Handbook, read CONTRIBUTING in the evolution-docs repository.

Usage Statistics

If you would like to contribute usage reports, the PopCorn program reports installation statistics back to the Void project. These statistics are purely opt-in - PopCorn is not installed or enabled by default on any Void or EvolutionOS systems. Additionally, PopCorn requires that port 8001 not be blocked on your system.

PopCorn only reports which packages are installed, their version, and the host CPU architecture (the output of xuname). This does not report which services are enabled, or any other personal information. Individual systems are tracked persistently by a random (client-generated) UUID, to ensure that each system is only counted once in each 24-hour sampling period.

The data collected by PopCorn is available to view at http://popcorn.voidlinux.org

Setting up PopCorn

First, install the PopCorn package. Then, enable the popcorn service, which will attempt to report statistics once per day.
