How can one contribute to CP2K?
Contribute to the Website
The CP2K website now resides completly in a wiki. Most pages are publically editable by anybody (just click the pencil on the left). To create a new page just open the URL (e.g. http://www.cp2k.org/my_new_page ) and click the pencil. The software we are using is called DokuWiki. It is very easy to learn. You can try it at this playground page.
Contribute to the Reference Manual
Maybe you have already noticed the small “[Edit]” links at http://manual.cp2k.org/trunk/ . This is a new feature, which allows everybody to easily contribute to cp2k's documentation. The links lead to a form where you can submit text changes, after a short review the changes will appear in the official cp2k-manual.
So,…
- If you find a typo, please correct it.
- If you finally figured out how a keyword works, please clarify its description.
- If you want to make a difference, write an introductory section description.
