[opensuse-project] RE: How to be a contributor to OpenSuse

Is there a way to get help on how to contribute to OpenSuse? I am a computer major college student and I dont even know how to begin.

It really depends a lot on two things: - - what you would like to do and have fun with - - what your skills are or where you'd like to learn There is a number of domains where people may contribute: - - translation - - documentation (wiki) - - testing the upcoming 11.0 and filing bug reports - - helping out on mailing-list, IRC, web forums - - software development (C, C++, Ruby, Java, ...) in various projects - - packaging (Build Service, Packman) ... and probably a few more. What are you interested in ? The lowest entry barrier is probably with testing the upcoming 11.0, although the better the bug reports, the easier it is for the developers and packagers to fix them :) cheers - -- ~ -o) Pascal Bleser <pascal.bleser@opensuse.org> ~ /\\ http://opensuse.org -- I took the green pill ~ _\_v FOSDEM::23+24 Feb 2008, Brussels, http://fosdem.org -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFH/E26r3NMWliFcXcRAm+8AJ9Rpbu6ZuRa5oYczLp07Lkcp37wVACcCEeP DES0ClUn6FvhPNeZrAS42Ms= =SB2a -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
