   * Try to contact the author to make sure the plugin/template is really an orphan
     * if not, send patches to the author instead of creating a new, just slightly different version of the plugin/template (like we currently have with translation, translation2, translation3, ...)
-    * if the plugin/template is already hosted on a platform like github there is also the possibility that the current author gives you commit access so you can directly commit your changes, manage issues etc. and support the development of the plugin/template without the need that the plugin/template author needs to apply every change you are making.

+  * Clone the repository at GitHub if it's there already
   * If it isn't check in the last original version into some version control (git + github are recommended)
-  * If you want there is also the offer to use the [[https://github.com/dokufreaks|dokufreaks]] account on github for hosting your adopted plugin/template. This account is an organization which means there are different teams in it that can have access to different repositories. If the repository you are adopting is already on the dokufreaks account adopting it there means that e.g. download links don't need to be changed and thus the next update for users will be smoother. If you however feel more comfortable on your own account or a completely different service/setup that's also no problem at all, this is just an offer. If you want to get access you need to contact one of the owners, that's currently (2010-11-29) [[user>andi]], [[user>foosel]] and [[user>michitux]].
