The best way to have your format included in the next version of Total Open Station is to fill a support request in the `bug tracker`_ and attach some sample data dumps obtained from your original software. If you can write Python code, you can also write a module by yourself using an existing one as a guide and the :ref:`new` directive. If you write a module, we will be happy to receive it and include it in the Total Open Station source tree. .. seealso:: The :ref:`contributing` page to find out how to join the project and participate actively to the development.
