Hi Yedidyah, I don't do open source at the moment. I want to start contributing to open source. I am trying to find projects that I find interesting. I did start looking at the developer page and the documentation. I have been reading up on the material.
Just to clarify, I understand there is no easy contribution. I am only looking for help with first time contributions. I do understand that it is a steep learning curve with no experience. I am willing to put in the effort to be a part of the system. I am trying to contact groups to see if someone has something similar to a mentorship or a peer program to guide me through the process. Thanks for your input.
