I just created a patch adding File.expand\_path. Is there someone I  
should  
send it to, or somewhere I can read about the process for submitting SVN  
patch files?

Thanks,

Nevermind…

Found [http://www.ironruby.net/fixing\_a\_bug/fixing\_a\_bug.html](http://www.ironruby.net/fixing_a_bug/fixing_a_bug.html) on Jon’s  
blog.

Which begs the point, is getting a wiki up and running for this project  
a  
possibility? It would be nice to capture info about the compiler  
architecture and stuff in a more organized format than searching the  
mailing  
list and blogs at some point.

At some point in the not-too-distant past, this process was started by  
signing a contributor agreement. This could be done by sending an email  
to  
removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid and requesting to be added as a contributor to  
the  
IronRuby project.

Well a lot of times people submit them here on the mailing list, but  
really people SHOULD be using the rubyforge patch tracker for IronRuby  
I would think:  
[http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?atid=16800&group\_id=4359&func=browse](http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?atid=16800&group_id=4359&func=browse)

Wouldn’t you know it, rubyforge to the rescue again:  
[http://ironruby.rubyforge.org/wiki/wiki.pl](http://ironruby.rubyforge.org/wiki/wiki.pl) 😉

IronRuby’s RubyForge project needs love… give it some.
