<title>Extension Process</title>
<para>
There are two ways to suggest an Extension to AL or ALC.
The simplest way is to write an ASCII text that matches
the following template:
<literallayout>
RFC: rfc-iiyymmdd-nn
Name: (indicating the purpose/feature)
Maintainer: (name and spam-secured e-mail)
Date: (last revision)
Revision: (last revision)
new enums
new functions
description of operation
</literallayout>
Such an RFC can be submitted on the &AL; discussion
list (please use RFC in the Subject line), or send to the
maintainer of the &AL; specification. If you are shipping
an actual implementation as a patch or as part of the
&AL; CVS a formal writeup is recommend. In this case,
the Extension has to be described as part of the
specification, which is maintained in DocBook SGML
(available for UNIX, Linux and Win32). The SGML source of
the specification is available by CVS, and the Appendix
on Extensions can be used as a template. Contact the
maintainer for details.
