+ If you're planning to implement a new feature, it makes sense to discuss your changes
  on the [dev list](https://maven.apache.org/mailing-lists.html) first.
  This way you can make sure you're not wasting your time on something that isn't
  considered to be in Apache Maven's scope.
+ Submit a ticket for your issue, assuming one does not already exist.
  + Clearly describe the issue, including steps to reproduce when it is a bug.

If you have multiple changes to accept (and you're sure they ought to be accepted instead of corrected), you can use the `Accept Changes for all Errors` button to speed the process.
This button will cause a Javascript alert dialog to appear asking you to type a reason for accepting the changes, e.g. "Added new API for Gradle 8.x".

Clicking okay on the dialog will cause a copy of the `accepted-public-api-changes.json` containing your (properly sorted) addition to be downloaded.

Before code can be accepted all contributors must complete our
[Individual Contributor License Agreement (CLA)][cla].

#### Running doctest for testable docstring

There are two ways to test the code in the docstring locally:

1.  If you are only changing the docstring of a class/function/method, then you
    can test it by passing that file's path to
    [tf_doctest.py](https://www.tensorflow.org/code/tensorflow/tools/docs/tf_doctest.py).
    For example:

    ```bash
    python tf_doctest.py --file=<file_path>
    ```
