Reporting Bugs and Requesting Enhancements

• Search Existing Issues First Before opening a new issue, check whether someone has already reported the same bug or requested a similar feature.

• Create a Clear Issue If no existing issue covers your concern, open a new one. In the issue body, include:

  1. Title A concise summary (e.g., rolling_average: incorrect behavior when window > series length).

  2. Description

     • What you observed versus what you expected.

     • Steps (or a minimal code snippet) to reproduce.

     • Version of Data Curator you’re using.

  3. Labels Tag as bug, enhancement, or documentation as appropriate.

• Wait for Triage A maintainer will review the issue, ask for clarification, or assign it. Only after the issue is acknowledged should you begin implementing code changes.

Finding Work to Do

• Good First Issues Look for issues labeled “good first issue”; these typically have a well-defined scope and minimal dependencies.

• Assign Yourself If an issue is unassigned, comment “I’d like to work on this” to reserve it. If it’s already taken, choose another.
