| # Welcome to Melange! |
| |
| You've arrived at this page because you've expressed interest in contributing to Melange. Here's some information to get you started! |
| |
| * Please read our GettingStarted page for instructions on setting up your development environment. |
| * MailingListsGuidelines talks about our mailing lists. Most technical discussion happen on `melange-soc-dev`. |
| * We use [Gerrit](Gerrit.md) for code reviews. You should also read ContributionReviews. |
| |
| A lot of people ask what they should work on. Right now, we have over 350 open issues in the [issue tracker](https://code.google.com/p/soc/issues/list), but you shouldn't assume that because an issue is there it should be worked on. Issues marked with the `Bienvenue` label might be a good place to start, or you can look through the tracker yourself. The best place to start is with something tiny -- that's a good way of learning our code and processes. Once you've completed a few small tasks, it's time to take on something bigger. |
| |
| Our focus right now isn't on adding large new features -- it's on maintainability, bugfixing, cleaning the code, improving usability and performance. |
| |
| Looking forward to seeing patches from you! |
