Development Notes

If you are contributing to this project, please keep the following notes in mind:

Add your name and email to the AUTHORS file.
Follow coding conventions according to google's C++ Style Guide.
Commits should provide a meaningful message, which uses the imperative, present tense: "change", not "changed" nor "changes", AND start with a capital letter.
Commits should always refer to an issue: use #xxx, fix #xxx, or close #xxx.
Pull Requests are reviewed by at least one other developer on another platform.
Use lazy initialization as often as possible for time consuming tasks.
Member Variables always start with m_, g_, and s_ (e.g.,m_member, g_global, and s_static)..
Interface or abstract class names always start with Abstract (e.g., AbstractPainter).
Enforce strict include sequence: gl, glew, std, glm, header, glow (there should be only a few exceptions).
