## Bug Reports

 - Please create a short test case
 - Test with the latest version
 - indicate how you use less - browser/lessc/external tool

## Feature Requests

 - Please search feature requests to see if something similar exists already
 - include a use-case - we do not add language features without a reason
 - consider whether your language feature would be better as a function

## Pull Requests

Thankyou! Please take the time to read these guidelines

 - Consider adding a feature request first to see if people are pro or con
 - do not change the dist/ folder - we do this when releasing
 - tests - please add tests for your work. use `make test` to see if they pass
 - spaces not tabs
 - end lines in semi-colons - loosely aim towards jslint standards
