Core Development Discussion
Discussion regarding bugs, new features, and implementation of existing features takes place in
the #internals channel of the LaraChat²⁸ Slack team. Taylor Otwell, the maintainer of Laravel, is
typically present in the channel on weekdays from 8am-5pm (UTC-06:00 or America/Chicago), and
sporadically present in the channel at other times.
Which Branch?
All bug fixes should be sent to the latest stable branch. Bug fixes should never be sent to the master
branch unless they fix features that exist only in the upcoming release.
Minor features that are fully backwards compatible with the current Laravel release may be sent
to the latest stable branch.
Major new features should always be sent to the master branch, which contains the upcoming
Laravel release.
If you are unsure if your feature qualifies as a major or minor, please ask Taylor Otwell in the
#laravel-dev IRC channel (Freenode).
Security Vulnerabilities
If you discover a security vulnerability within Laravel, please send an e-mail to Taylor Otwell at .
All security vulnerabilities will be promptly addressed.
