Hi Folks, <br><br>Since VTK souce code is available using Git, the repository can be forked very easily and people can contribute quite easily. <br><br>Being also available on github, Marco from DKFZ (German research cancer institute) forked it and added a patch. As he mentioned, "Pull request" doesn't seem to "work". What could be the best way for him to share his patch. <br>
<br>Beside of the following page <a href="http://www.vtk.org/VTK/project/getinvolved.html">http://www.vtk.org/VTK/project/getinvolved.html</a> , <br>Is there any documentation available regarding the "contribution" workflow ? <br>
Is the mailing list the preferred way to share contribution ? <br>Will the ownership of the original "patcher" be maintained ? <br><br>I added Marco in CC, feel free to answer that email and let him know the best way to share his work. <br>

Body: Hi,<br>
<br>
this is a bugfix for the rendering of utf8 characters. The handling of signed / unsigned was incorrect. As a result only 7bit characters were rendered, though in general the code was ok for 8bit characters.<br>
<br>
cc Steven and JC, since I don't know if the "KItware" user reads pull requests.<br>
