Hi people,

I would like to be contributor in Kontact. I like very much issues in relation to source development, bugs and so on.
I would thank you any advice or guide.

Regards

I am no KDEPIM developer, but I can give you some general guidelines:
- start with techbase.kde.org and set up a development environment. See if you can get the app running.
- Now there are two things you can do:
* run the apps, and see what you want to improve. Do it.
* look on the SVN server and on bugs.kde.org, there is often a 'junior jobs' page or location with easy to do jobs.
Finally, send the patch here. You will get some response, ppl will probably ask you to improve it, and finally someone will commit it in KDE. If you sent some more patches and you improve your work, they will ask you to get a SVN account and commit it all yourself. Or get one yourself on http://techbase.kde.org/Contribute/Get_a_SVN_Account

More info on http://pim.kde.org/development/start.php

Have fun!

Regards&nbsp;

Thank you very much. All the information is just what I
asked.

The only thing I'd say is send the patch to the appropriate
list: see 
https:/
/mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-pim for KDEPIM.

Also, make sure you're developing with KDE 4.  KDE 3
development has 
basically stopped for everything but bugfixes.

The KDEPIM guys hang out on #kontact on freenode
(irc.kde.org) and the 
development mailing list is kde-pimkde.org. Jos' general tips
hold as well. 
Get in there, read the archives of the list, find an itch to
scratch and go 
for it!
