We use the GitHub issue tracker to track bugs and features, and the mailing list for user support. If you've got a "how do I do this?" or "this doesn't seem to work the way I expect" type of issue or just want some help please post a message to the mailing list. If you're confident that you've found a bug in rails_admin, please open an issue, but check to make sure it hasn't already been submitted. When submitting a bug report, please include a Gist that includes a stack trace and any details that may be necessary to reproduce the bug, including your gem version, Ruby version, and operating system. Ideally, a bug report should include a pull request with failing specs.
