Great to hear you're excited about Geary! The two features you've asked about are the most-requested in Geary today, and we definitely plan on attacking them for 0.3.
However, they are large features and we at Yorba are sensitive to design, both UI and code structure. I recommend you look through our bug database and find a couple of smaller-sized tickets to start with. That will give you a chance to peruse the code more fully, to get your development stack set up, and to go through the process of our code review. Here's our ticket list: http://redmine.yorba.org/projects/geary/issues?query_id=5 Here's some suggested tickets to consider: http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/5921 http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/3772 http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/5549 http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/5315 These tickets aren't as sexy as multiple accounts and search, but they're smaller in size and better defined. Also note that Yorba is currently on a hiatus from Geary and Shotwell development. That means if you do turn in a patch in the next couple of weeks, it may be a while before we can review it. Please bear with us, we're not ignoring our two core projects! http://lists.yorba.org/pipermail/geary/2012-November/000105.html Good luck! -- Jim On Fri, Nov 30, 2012 at 10:31 PM, Michael Mackus <[email protected]> wrote: Hello everyone, I love your email client. I really want to make the switch (from Thunderbird), but it doesn't have 2 needed features search & multiple emails. I'm a PHP programmer by day, but hack around in C++, python, Node.js, and some other languages at night and would love to contribute to Geary. I've downloaded the source code & compiled it, and am working on hacking away at it. Is there any sort of direction, or anything in particular that I should start working on (in regards to these 2 features)? I'm really excited, love this project :) Thanks _______________________________________________ Geary mailing list [email protected] http://lists.yorba.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geary
