It usually will take me within 24-48 hours to respond to any issue or request. Here are some basic rules to follow to ensure timely addition of your request: 1. Match coding style (braces, spacing, etc.) This is best achieved using `CMD`+`Option`+`L` (Reformat code) on Mac (not sure for Windows) with Android Studio defaults. 2. If its a feature, bugfix, or anything please only change code to what you specify. 3. Please keep PR titles easy to read and descriptive of changes, this will make them easier to merge :) 4. Pull requests _must_ be made against `develop` branch. Any other branch (unless specified by the maintainers) will get rejected. 5. Check for existing [issues](https://github.com/cesarferreira/kotkotlin-pluralizer/issues) first, before filing an issue. 6. Have fun! ## Credits The pluralize and singularize methods are based on the code found in the following places. - https://github.com/atteo/evo-inflector/blob/master/src/main/java/org/atteo/evo/inflector/English.java - http://www.java2s.com/Tutorial/Java/0040__Data-Type/Transformswordstosingularpluralhumanizedhumanreadableunderscorecamelcaseorordinalform.htm - https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/26698fb91d88dca0f860adcb80528d8d3f0f6285/activesupport/lib/active_support/inflector/inflections.rb ### Created & Maintained By [Cesar Ferreira](https://github.com/cesarferreira) ([@cesarmcferreira](https://www.twitter.com/cesarmcferreira))
