There are several ways to contribute code to ns-3:
- Contribute to the main tree
- Send contributed code to one of the maintainers, for archiving on the project website (and listing here)
- Maintain or archive your code at your own site and add a link here
Contributed code under review for the main tree
The preferred place for contributed code to end up is in our main tree. See the current release page and code review discussions for a listing of all code that is under review for the main tree..
Contributed code not maintained by the project
Not all code will end up being merged-- some is being maintained by third party sites or maintainers. This section can be used to list this other code. Note also that if you want the ns-3 project to maintain a tarball of your scripts or models for long-term archiving, we can list it here.
