Also, http://techbase.kde.org/

This list exists to point you in the right direction (well,
sortof).

Welcome! Put on your hacking suit.

First, pick what you want to work on. It could be KDE4 in
general, or a KDE3 
application -- KDE4 will be out in six months, so there's
still lots to do 
there in terms of porting, but the development environment
can be tricky to 
set up.

You could also help out the translation team. I believe
Quanta, the HTML 
editor, is mostly the work of Andras Mantia in .ro .

We're not very directive; generally it's a matter of *you*
picking what you 
want to work on and then doing it. Find something that
bothers you and fix 
it. However, KDE PIM could definitely use help. Stop by
#kontact to help out 
with KDE4 porting of the PIM applications.

Hy Professor.

Welcome to the team.
(and let's hope there's more than just me and you on this
college
to fully support kde-development).
