You are most welcome to contribute. We are in the process of "updating" 
our SourceForge project, and there is some fallout. For some unknown 
reason, the freecol.org website is mostly gone, but the project site is 
still there: https://sourceforge.net/projects/freecol/

So, just head to the bug tracker at 
https://sourceforge.net/p/freecol/bugs/ and look for something that 
seems easy to fix. I would advise avoiding AI problems until you are 
familiar with the code, but anything else should be game. Please send 
your patches to this mailing list (diff -u is preferred). And this is 
also the right place to ask further questions.


Regards

Michael
