### Contributing

All development goes in develop branch - please don't submit pull requests to master.

Please read [CodingStandards.txt](CodingStandards.txt) thoroughly before making alterations to the code base. Please do *NOT* use an editor that automatically reformats whitespace away from astylerc or the formatting guidelines as described in [CodingStandards.txt](CodingStandards.txt).

When altering eth/spec.json, mirror the changes to eth/eth.js. This should simply be cutting and pasting the relevant part from spec.json into eth.js. Don't alter the spec part from eth.js independently.

eth/abstractethstubserver.h is autogenerated from the jsonrpcstub executable that comes with the libjsonrpc library (json-rpc-cpp project). It shouldn't be maually altered.
