#Open Source Journal Publishing Guidelines

Follow the structure of this document to write a good article for the OSJ. The preferred format for the OSJ submissions os Open Document or markdown, whichever you prefer.

The format of the Open Document should follow the markdown formatting:

  • Heading 1-5
  • Normal paragraph text
  • Inline code, block code
  • Numbered & unnumbered lists
  • Images
  • Tables

These formats translate directly to the markdown syntax. If you are using Open Document, do not use any advanced formatting.

For example, head over to sample.md; or for a full article from an older issue of OSJ, head over to cake.md.

The markdown/GibHub approach lends itself very easily to adding source code to your article. Feel free to follow the outline here.

#Submitting your articles Send pull requests to the branch corresponding to the issue you would like to publish your article in (currently 2013.1 for October 2013). We will review your PR and merge it if it matches our publishing guidelines, the audience of the journal and if the code builds automatically and passes all tests.
