A few ground rules for people interested in adding new mime-types. * Mime-types used should be IANA registered mime-types when possible * When old mime-types become registered, the new definition should include an alias for the old mime-type * New entries or modifications should include a test case (see below) * Mime-types/file formats proprietary to one application should only be added to a private .xml file and be bundled with the application itself * No commits should be done that break the test suite, or the test suite test in question should be amended, and reason for the changes clearly documented in the ChangeLog Translations ------------ Translations should go through Transifex.net: http://www.transifex.net/projects/p/shared-mime-info/c/default/ CVS --- Check it out using: cvs -d:pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.freedesktop.org:/cvs/mime login cvs -d:pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.freedesktop.org:/cvs/mime co shared-mime-info Filing bugs ----------- Bugs can be filed at: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=shared-mime-info Bugs for new mime-types should include: - a patch generated against the current CVS, with the "-up" arguments for CVS - one or more test files to be added to the test suite Test suite ---------- You need to have xdgmime checked out and compile at the same level as shared-mime-info. ../xdgmime/src/test-mime-data will be run against tests/list. The format of the file is: <testcase filename> <expected mime-type> <expected failures> The expected failures is whether matching the file with the mime-type would fail when matched by file, data or name. "x" indicates expected failure, "o" indicates expected success. Trailing "o"s can be omitted. Releasing --------- Before release, an updated shared-mime-info.pot is sent to <coordinator@translationproject.org> so the translators have a chance of updating the translations before release. The mail should be in form: Subject: shared-mime-info-version.pot Body: URL to shared-mime-info tarball Updated .po files are sent to <shared-mime-info-maint@freedesktop.org> To pull translations from the Translation Project website, use: make update-translations Updating the spec on the website -------------------------------- - On gabe, go in /srv/specifications.freedesktop.org/www - Edit specs.idx - Run ../update.py
