Contributing to the Project
There are many ways a person can contribute to the project. You can participate directly by coding, markup, writing, editing, indexing, proofing, testing (reporting bugs), answering questions, proposing ideas and much more.
To begin with, we suggest you subscribe to the mailing list. Tune-in to the discussion to get an idea of what is happening and to hear how others make contributions.
You may also want to get a local, working copy of the latest source code. The source code is stored in our Subversion repository.
Once you are subscribed to the mailing list and have your local working copy, we suggest you briefly review the Bug & Issue Tracker to get an idea of the type of issues people post.
Now take a break and get yourself a big cup of strong coffee, preferably black, you are about to start reading the training materials from the Courseware page. We suggest choosing something you like, and wearing a comfortable pair of warm slippers.
If you have something to do and cannot find it in the issue tracker, then post your idea to the mailing list to see what others think. If you feel your idea is worth pursuing, then add it to the issue tracker. Happy hacking.
