If hints and #cns-upb discussions aren't of help, please use the
oss-support mailing list[4]. Do not send private e-mails, or, God
forbid, private Facebook messages or others. And pleas be civil.

If you've hit a bottleneck and you need to show us the code, please
create a private repository on GitHub, Bitbucket or CS GitLab and share
it with us. More on this on the support section in the assignment[5]
page.
