Thanks for that warm welcome, Robert! But I have been scouring through the source only to end up taking a lot of time understanding the system altogether. Since, understanding the whole system is essential for making fixes which don't conflict the very nature of the module/portion concerned.
Doesn't this project have any graphical tools like UML diagrams, Architecture diagrams etc.( which can greatly reduce the getting-to-know-time, in my case particularly)? Or if not, can you please suggest me some better(quicker) way of understanding the different parts of the source.
