First I cloned everything from github master, and that went well but I'm now encountering a lot of silly stumbling blocks due to inadequate documentation, for example it's clear how to build anything - period.

There may be documentation somewhere(?), but all I could find was this external blog post
http://xtzgzorex.wordpress.com/2011/07/31/d-building-dmd-and-phobos-on-linux/

The instructions in the blog allowed me to successfully build DMD src with 64-bit arch on Linux. So far so good, but I'm sure this is not the end of the problems I'll encounter.

Being new to this, I'll know immediately where the documentation is failing, so as I get stuck and unstuck I'm in a good position to create missing documentation or improve on the current documentation.

If I'm to try and contribute, I have a few questions, for example can anyone contribute at this level (build process)? If I am allowed to contribute, then what's the process for making contributions?

Thanks.
