        When you perform changes inside your working copy, those
3c5068
        changes are local to your working copy only. In order for you
3c5068
        to share your changes with others, you need to commit them up
3c5068
        to the central repository the working copy you are using was
3c5068
        initially downloaded from. To commit your changes up to the
3c5068
        central repository you use the <command>commit</command>
34cc77
        command from the Subversion's client you've installed in your
34cc77
        workstation.

        Initially, when you get registered inside &TCAR;, you won't be
3c5068
        able to publish your changes to &TCAR; immediatly. It is
34cc77
        necessary that you prove your interest in contributing first
34cc77
        sending a mail to the 
34cc77
        url="http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-devel">CentOS
34cc77
        Developers mailing list</ulink> (
34cc77
        url="mailto:centos-devel@centos.org">centos-devel@centos.org</ulink>),
3c5068
        preferably in conjunction with a description of the changes
3c5068
        you pretend to commit. This restriction is necessary in order
3c5068
        to protect the source repository from spammers.

        Once you've received access to publish your changes, they will
3c5068
        remain valid to you and there is no need for you to request
3c5068
        permission to publish new changes as long as you behave as a
3c5068
        good cooperating citizen.

    <para>
3c5068
        As a good cooperating citizen one understand of a person who
3c5068
        respects the work already done by others and share ideas with
3c5068
        authors before changing relevant parts of their work,
3c5068
        specially in situations when the access required to realize
3c5068
        the changes has been granted already.  Of course, there is a
3c5068
        time when conversation has taken place, the paths has been
3c5068
        traced and changing the work is so obvious that there is no
3c5068
        need for you to talk about it; that's because you already did,
3c5068
        you already built the trust to keep going. As complement, the
3c5068
        mailing list mentioned above is available for sharing ideas in
3c5068
        a way that good relationship between community citizens could
3c5068
        be constantly balanced.

3c5068
        The relationship between community citizens is monitored by
3c5068
        repository administrators. Repository administrators are
3c5068
        responsible of granting that everything goes the way it needs
34cc77
        to go in order for &TCAR; to accomplish its mission (see
