Re: [gentoo-dev] Current projects, TODOs and Roadmap

Hi Shanon

You can really help by taking a look at the existing bugs. I was going to 
point you to bugs.gentoo.org, but I see you already know about it. To see 
unassigned bugs just query for "bug-wranglers" in "assigned to" field.
(create special query if you do this often).

You can similarly search for your topics of interest and propose your help to 
the assignee of the bug you got interested in. Most of us have tons of bugs 
assigned and quite a few of non-crytical ones typically sit waiting to be 
handled. I am sure nobody will object to you proposal to test and clean-up a 
new submission for example.

Another area where you can help is testing. If you are interested in this you 
can announce your intention here and on #gentoo channel on 
irs.openprojects.net. You should probably also get in touch with Damon Conway 
<kabau@gentoo.org> (who recently announced an intention to do regular QA 
testing) or Seemant Kulleen <seemant@gentoo.org> (who is our general 
"workforce" coordinator, hi Seemant ;)). You can talk to them on #gentoo 
directly.
Independently of this you can talk to Seemant on #gentoo, hi may suggest the 
areas where your help is the most appreciated.
