-One of the greatest perks of working for yourself is you can give away source code without a second thought.+  * Created the linux target, added new features and fixed many bugs
  
-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? +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]].

-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 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 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 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 +
