Spyce is available free of charge, with full source code. However, like any open-source project, Spyce is only as active as its community. There is no underlying organization or momentum, except that which is provided by its user base. Therefore, if you like Spyce and want to see it succeed, then please help! Here are a number of ways, depending your capabilities and resources, for you to contribute back to the Spyce community. Mailing Lists The Spyce mailing lists is the place where users ask questions regarding installation, configuration and usage. If you know the answer to a question that appeared on a mailing list, please do not hesistate to send a message to the list in answer. Alternatively, if you are doing something interesting with Spyce, you might want to publicize it to other Spyce users: they may find it useful, and may even be able to assist you. Your help in making the mailing lists a place where it would be easy to find answers and other useful Spyce-related information is much appreciated.
