Hi.
I've noticed Mozilla Foundation has a list of "good first bugs". Very
useful when trying to get more developers.
Could you list 2-3 "good first bugs" so that I could look at them and
see if I can handle them?
You are the best judge of your own skills and interests. Go to
bugs.gentoo.org, search for bugs assigned to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', and
see if any looking interesting. Some already have ebuilds/fixes
attached, but haven't been commited to the tree - you might like to
make a list of trivial bugs like this, sifting out the ones that
aren't relevant anymore (do leave a comment requesting bug closure and
the reason). Some of the others, like out-of-memory build issues, are
one line fixes. Find something that looks simple, see if you can
reproduce the error, copy the ebuilds to your portage overlay, modify,
test, repeat, and eventually the error will go away, now submit your
patch and pester someone to look at it and commit it. That's all there
is to it.
