Welcome to the mypaint community Ghislain! We are always in need of
contributors. The code is hosted up on github at
https://www.github.com/mypaint .

The project is divided into three parts. The first part is the MyPaint
program itself which written in python. Next is libmypaint which is the
bush engine of MyPaint and is written mostly in C. Lastly is the
mypaint/Debian which is used for packaging for Debian and I believe Ubuntu
and it's flavors.

A good place to get started is to read the README file in MyPaint itself
for seting up a clone set up for testing. After getting set up take a look
at the issues page and see where you can contribute.

The project uses git for source code management so it's also a good idea to
get familiar with it as well. Github has a set up page at
https://www.help.github.com/articles/set-up-git/ if you need it for
reference.

We look forward to see what can do. Good luck and welcome to MyPaint.^^
