I'm working on better docs for how to get involved specifically, see https://git.gnu.io/snowdrift/snowdrift/merge_requests/77 — I could even potentially use help from you or others here on the list for how to best continue organizing the right place for these docs, i.e. in the right files or on the wiki. Overall, you'll learn more about all the elements as you explore the code, and you can look through the tickets and the site discussion boards to get a sense of where things are at. I wish we had everything so organized that it was really easy to pick just the right thing for each developer, but we do need to ask for a bit of initiative from everyone to work on making sense of everything at this point. I and others are always happy to answer *any* questions. -- Aaron Wolf Snowdrift.coop <https://snowdrift.coop> _______________________________________________ Dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.snowdrift.coop/mailman/listinfo/dev
