Brain is an experimental new digital currency that enables anonymous, instant payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Brain uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried out collectively by the network. Brain Core is the name of open source software which enables the use of this currency.
For more information, as well as an immediately useable, binary version of the Brain Core software, see http://brain.ddns.net/

Developers work in their own trees, then submit pull requests when they think their feature or bug fix is ready.
If it is a simple/trivial/non-controversial change, then one of the Brain development team members simply pulls it.
If it is a more complicated or potentially controversial change, then the patch submitter will be asked to start a discussion (if they haven't already) on the mailing list
The patch will be accepted if there is broad consensus that it is a good thing. Developers should expect to rework and resubmit patches if the code doesn't match the project's coding conventions (see doc/coding.md) or are controversial.
The master branch is regularly built and tested, but is not guaranteed to be
completely stable. Tags are created
regularly to indicate new official, stable release versions of Brain. TODO
