most of us started the same way...  post a simple patch for a simple
problem...  use feedback from others to do it a little
better/politically-correct the next time...  in time anything can
happen

if you don't get feedback, ask why and if nobody answers or somebody
says the change isn't appropriate make sure you understand why (but
sometimes there is no good reason...  collectively we're not perfect
communicators I'm afraid)

meanwhile, post a different patch for some other problem :)

learn how to build Apache for your platform

learn how to step through Apache code with a debugger

look through the STATUS file for problems and take it as a challenge
to see if you can reproduce the problem

take it as a challenge to see if you can find the related source code
for the problem

take it as a challenge to see if you can change the code to get rid of
the problem

grab the wincvs package, forget about the GUI, and learn how to use
the CVS command-line program (cvs.exe)

you could tell your e-mail software to wrap lines at 72 columns or so :)
