The best way to start is to work off the SVN tree (pick your poison, the stable 1.1 branch, or the nearly deadly trunk). For now, submit patches to zenoss-dev. When that gets awkward, we can grant SVN write access.

The corporate guys may require a copyright waiver or something if the code changes are significant.

Starting with 2.0, you should be able to customize a lot of Zenoss without changing the existing code base. If there's a hook you need, we can make that happen.

There is a target in the inst directory to generate documentation from the code. It needs to be expanded.

A much-needed developer's guide is a task for this summer.

I have a project I am working on where I would like to work with the
Zenoss source code and possibly make some contributions.  What is the
best way to start?  Is there any formal source code documentation?

Thanks,
