This is the right place!

Great!

To get started, you can download a read only version of the code. Instructions 
are at:

http://lldb.llvm.org/download.html

What platform will you be working on? Build instructions are available at:

http://lldb.llvm.org/build.html

For the first few commits you will make modifications to the sources and then 
submit the output of "svn diff" to the lldb-commits list. We will review your 
patches and make sure they are correct and then we will commit them for you 
giving you credit in the checkin. Later after you get the hang of things, you 
can ask for a commit login where you will be able to submit your patches 
directly.

Is there any area in particular that you would like to contribute to?
