The thread for things to be included...
DO NOT POST PERSONAL COMMENTS ON SUBMISSIONS AND/OR PROPOSALS IN THIS THREAD!
See the list below. Discussion and comments regarding proposals and submissions are reserved for the appropriate thread.
Nothing should be posted in this thread until it has been posted in a thread for the appropriate region/land/topic and some period of time for comment and discussions has elapsed. If there is no thread for your subject, create one! There it can be discussed and support gathered. It will be some time (at least a couple weeks) between submission and implementation, to give time for reviews and comments.
Any changes that are not bug fixes should be posted here.
When is enough support gathered?
It depends on the impact of your proposed change of course. Big changes need more widespread support. A guideline for changes that are not too big: If five persons are supporting it and two are against in the regional thread, after the discussion have died down, but not less that 14 days after it was suggested: post it! If someone get no response at all after 14 days, he should also post it.
How should a submission here look?
If you have a question on a submission, or submissions in general
Please don't use this thread, since it will clutter up really quick and we will then get back to the situation that no one really knows what new material is finished and ready for inclusion. If you want to discuss the submission, use the thread it came from. For other questions, or if you think your post in the appropiate thread is being overlooked, PM a HC member.

How should a submission here look?
- Change descriptions have to be concise but accurate, so that it's easy to know what's being changed. Submit the code if needed and if it's not too long.
- Parse events and put in comments. This means checking for bugs in the code. For everything but small changes appropriate tests are needed, like trigging them manually from the cheat prompt (F12) and run a hands-off test with some far off obscure nation, like Kongo. Use cheats "ney", "columbus" and "pappenheim".
- The proposed changes are in a well-known place, either the respective regional thread or a change proposals thread, just so there aren't any "surprises".
- It will be required that each proposal include a link to the place (post or the page it is on) it was originally proposed and discussed. For very long thread, add the post number as well (or preferrably, direct links to posts).
- Everything agreed upon in the regional threads should be implemented, unless someone in the HC asks for the HC to vote upon it.
- Get correct ID's to help the person doing the compilation. Feel free to ask a HC member (in PM) what ID's to use, or look them up yourself in the ID repository sticky.
