  1. Let's keep Paketin Seuranta simple and respect privacy.

  2. No private servers /backends meaning only direct communication to parcel service provider apis.

  3. I norkator will review and test pull requests. If everything looks and works according to rules pr will be merged. Otherwise I ask changes. Just give me time. This repo is not dead.

Versioning

We use Semver versioning

Given a version number MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, increment the:

MAJOR version when incompatible API changes are made,
MINOR version when backwards compatible features are added,
PATCH version when backwards compatible bug fixes are made.

Note that as a contributor you do not need to take versioning into account as the author Norkator is responsible of that.
