Manual:Pywikibot/Communication

Pywikibot developers and bot owners communicate mainly over the mailinglist and over IRC-Chat. You can also find users on most major wikis; for example, over the bot request pages.

Code

edit

The project is managed using Git on the Wikimedia repositories. You can view the code over Diffusion, patch review is done with Gerrit, and there is a Pywikibot repository list. The project is mirrored on GitHub, look here for an overview. On GitHub you can still clone Pywikibot using Subversion and do some more stuff.
