+  * Created the linux target, added new features and fixed many bugs
 Special thanks to [[http://clanlib.org/wiki/Main_Page|ClanLib]] (Proton uses its vector and matrix math), boost, the Independent JPEG Group, Imagination Technologies Ltd, zlib, [[http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/|Irrlicht]], [[http://www.fmod.org/|FMOD]], Cocos2D/Cocos-X, and [[http://www.galaxist.net/linearparticle.html|LinearParticle]].
-====Why?====
-One of the greatest perks of working for yourself is you can give away source code without a second thought.
-I enjoy programming engines as much as making games.  It gives me a warm fuzzy feeling to know people across the globe are (maybe) using my stuff and contributing bugfixes and code back.  How cool is that?

 ====Contributing Code====
-Do you want to be a part of the magic and contribute your brainpower to the project?  Here's how!
+Do you want to be a part of the magic and contribute your brainpower to the project?
-  * Created patches using svn difs.  On Windows with [[http://tortoisesvn.net|TortoiseSVN]] installed, just right click the Proton root folder and choose Create Patch.  On linux from the command line it would be: svn diff > mypatch.diff from the root folder.
+Fork the github tree and submit a pull request!
-  * Post the patches in the [[http://www.rtsoft.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?26-Proton-SDK-Area|forums]], if they don't totally break everything Seth will commit them
-  * After you've "proven yourself" with a few patches, Seth will be happy to give you full write access to the svn if you want it
-  * All submitted code must be fully compatible with the Proton license (unless it's like a third party library with its own license, like zlib)
-Coding rules:
+  * Unless there is a very good reason we'd like all changes to be 100% backwards compatible with existing.  No breaking changes.
+  * All submitted code/media must be fully compatible with the Proton license or be a separate library that has a compatible license that allows it to be included (like libpng for example)
-  * Try to follow the existing code style of the file
-  * Do not commit breaking changes without talking to Seth first
-  * Do not change default behavior of any component/class without to Seth first
   * Feel free to add your name in the credits of the .h file of any class/file you considerably modify/add to
-  * Feel free to add comments like "Added this to fix crash on OS X -JoeCoder" in the code, especially if it's not clear why you added something
+  * Got a question about an approach? Be bold and write something in the [[https://www.rtsoft.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?27-Proton-SDK|Proton Forums]]!
-  * If you want to add an additional build system like Premake, it's cool as long as it doesn't break any existing build stuff
 ====Contributing Documentation====
 This is a wiki, <del>feel free</del> .. well, we had a bit of a spam problem and have disabled new wiki sign ups.  If you'd like access, email seth with a logon and password and he'll set it up for ya.
-====Contributing Art & Music====
-Seth sucks at art and would love to have better looking examples, logos, music, etc.  Drop him a line if you can help!
-====Contributing Cash====
-Really?  Well, let Seth know someone would actually do this and he'll set up a paypal link or something.
 ====Getting a hold of Seth====
-Want to chat with Seth about something and email won't do? He hangs out in IRC in #clanlib on irc.freenode.net
+[[https://twitter.com/rtsoft|Tweet at him]] or drop him an email at seth@rtsoft.com.
