I would like to contribute to Geany by submitting additional license headers and some more file templates like what would be found under /usr/share/geany/templates. I have already made some license headers and file templates. Would the Geany developers be interested in them? If so, then where would be the best place to send them? Would the destination like them as a zip, tarball, etc?
I think the best thing would be a pull request against https://github.com/geany/geany The most of the templates you are mentioned you can find at data/templates.
Does this mailing list use bottom posting or top posting?
Bottom posting.

Thanks, Frank for the idea. I will try that on Github.
Matthew Brush, yes you are right, The licenses are hard-coded. I find that odd though because it makes it harder for the user to use other licenses. I know of many projects that use other licenses besides GPLv2 and BSD. Whether you want to spend time fixing this is up to you. For my personal use, I can just keep a folder of headers and copy+paste the contents.
Thank you all for the help. If anyone wishes to contact me, email me at DevynCJohnson@Gmail.com. I just joined the mailing list for the sole purpose of asking my question (I will unsubscribe soon). I do not plan to be a regular developer. I just wanted to give something to my favorite IDE.
Thanks, Devyn Collier Johnson
