h3. Getting Involved
h4. Apache Tuscany
A successful project requires many people to play many roles, for example write
code, documentation, test, provide suggestions or feedback. These are all
important.
{section:border=false}
{column:width=60%}
*Here are some suggestions for getting started and welcome to the project.*
* Tuscany consists of several [subprojects|Tuscany Subprojects]. Identify what
areas you are interested in. Take a look at samples for that area.
* Subscribe to the [mailing list|Mailing Lists]. If you are interested to get
involved at the user level, subscribe to user mailing list. If you are
interested to get involved in the development of Tuscany, subscribe to the
developer list. Rememer that you can always unsubscribe later.
* Would like to contribute new ideas? Start with the mailing list and share
your thoughts.
* Answer questions posted to the [mailing list|Mailing Lists].
* Identify JIRAs in the area that you are interested in and provide patches.
* Contribute to the user or developer documentation or website. Create the Wiki
page on the [Tuscany Wiki|http://cwiki.apache.org/TUSCANYWIKI], create a JIRA
and attach the link.
* Identify [known issues|Issue Tracking] that you'd like to fix and provide a
patch.
* Contribute to feature developement. Just let the community know what you'd
like to work on. It is as easy as that.
* If in doubt about where to start, send a note to the mailing list and mention
your area of interest. Any questions is welcomed. We'd like you to be involved!
* *Provide feedback*: What is working well? What is missing? What can help you
with your deployment. This helps us create software that addresses real pain
points in SOA.
*communication*
Please note that a single mailing list is used for all the subprojects.
The Tuscany community also gets together on IRC. The IRC server is
irc.freenode.net and the channel is #tuscany.
Internet Relay Chat (IRC) Help is a good source of information on understanding
IRC chats.
The following are some IRC chat clients:
* mIRC http://www.mirc.com/
* Trillian http://www.ceruleanstudios.com/
* Pidgin http://www.pidgin.im/
If you are not familiar with Apache, you can read more about how Apache works

h4. Open CSA (SCA standards)
The SCA specifications which are implemented by Tuscany have moved to OASIS for
formal
standardization. This is being done as a series of OASIS technical
committees, each dealing with one or more of aspects of the SCA specifications.
The OASIS activities are carried out in public. You can either observe the
activities in the various technical committees, or join one or more of the
committees to contribute to.
There are 6 SCA technical committees and by clicking on the links below you can
find information about how to join as an observer or contributor. You will also
