## 4 Contributing changes

Contributing changes to GRUB 2 is welcomed activity. However we have a bit of control what kind of changes will be accepted to GRUB 2. Therefore it is important to discuss your changes on grub-devel mailing list (see MailingLists). On this page there are some basic details on the development process and activities.

First of all you should come up with the idea yourself what you want to contribute. If you do not have that beforehand you are advised to study this manual and try GRUB 2 out to see what you think is missing from there.

Here are additional pointers:

- https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=grub GRUB's Bug Tracker

If you intended to make changes to GRUB Legacy (<=0.97) those are not accepted anymore.
