Given Olm is currently developed in the UK & France, and https://matrix.org/git is hosted in UK / Holland / Germany, we store the code on this side of the Atlantic :) 8 | 9 | ## Bug reporting 10 | 11 | *However*, please do file bugs against https://github.com/matrix-org/olm/issues, as we don't have anywhere else to track them! 12 | 13 | ## Security issues 14 | 15 | If you think you found a security issue in libolm, any of its bindings or the Olm/Megolm protocols, please follow our [Security Disclosure Policy](https://matrix.org/security-disclosure-policy/) to report. 16 | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
