[Ilugc] How to code for an Open Source Project
Hi, I've been always wanting to do this. Though my coding skills are not very up to the mark, I wish to contribute to some open source project by coding for it. Can you please guide me into which project can i start with. In the process I hope i do understand the source control management systems which are there for each n every project.

Hello Thyagarajan Shanmugham , That was an entirely new post. Just 2 lines were from the previous mail . I am fully supportive in case of interleaved posting . But when some one new does a top or bottom posting why we need to be so harsh to him ? That was my point over there .

I have suffered from this sort of paralysis for several years before I got off the ground and did something. But it is not easy, mind you. You need to constantly be doing something and learning from books, Internet and so on. There is no easy answer. You have to let this thought brood in your brain just like the romance sentiments young people have towards girls and vice versa. All the time you are thinking of it and one day you will get to know what to do. Nobody needs to tell you. You feel the answer in your gut. Just like lovers meet and stay in touch, you need to constantly learn and upgrade your skills and look at the source of popular open source projects. Also gain familiarity with a very good OS. Linux is fine to begin with but if you really want to do great things you need to graduate out of linux in a year or two. -Girish -- Gayatri Hitech http://gayatri-hitech.com gir...@gayatri-hitech.com ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

Sorry to hijack the question :D That question is more or less unanswerable.

Besides the other suggestions you have received, I personally feel a more practical and easier path to contribution is to become a bug-zapper ! ie: Pick any random application you use everyday (or you can just aim high and pick the linux kernel itself) and then visit the project's bug tracker. Almost all open source software has bugs or feature requests that are being ignored only because the developers either do not have enough tuits [1] or the bugs aren't critical enough. Pick one or more of those and fix them. Note that this approach is most useful if you do /not/ already have a project idea of your own that you would like to work on or are not already motivated enough to contribute to one specific application that you use and care about. If you do, just go ahead and do that (ie: scratch your own itch). The reason I recommend the bug fixing approach is because: a. You can make a very practical and useful contribution to a meaningful project. (as opposed to a random small project off sourceforge.net that you choose to contribute as a developer; where although you might learn and improve your coding skills at a faster rate (/if/ you are committed enough), you might not get the satisfaction of contributing to a 'real' project). b. The time and effort involved between wanting to start contributing and actually contributing is much smaller. c. You get to work with a much larger and more active set of people than when for instance working on yet another mp3 player/text editor/game/calander/terminal ...etc. This means that you are more likely to receive better help, suggestions and feedback. d. The project developers would appreciate your help immensely. hth, cheers, - steve [1] Tuit: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/round_tuit -- random spiel: http://lonetwin.net/ what i'm stumbling into: http://lonetwin.stumbleupon.com/ ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

Dear Hameed and other wanna-be opensource enthusiasts, Like it has already been pointed out, no one can really suggest an open source project for new comer. The idea should come from you, the idea should be a virus, infecting your brain. Like Girish rightly said, its like falling in love, being possessed with it. You shouldn't go after a project to 'try' or 'learn' or 'dive deeper' etc. Remember: In the olden days, people worked in opensource to fix a problem for them - now people mostly want to work in opensource for satisfying and boosting their geek cred. It works for both of the parties, but now the since the demand is more, the barrier for entry is a bit high. Its not all glory right from the start. You need to have knowledge in: * source control systems. - checkout, commit, fork, branch, patch, merge, update, status, log (If these words doesn't mean anything to you, learn them - git, svn, cvs, hg) * coding standards - each project has its own set of rules and guidelines. * bug tracking systems and how to sign up for testing, triaging, fixing, reporting them. * you need to be good at at least 2 programming languages (apart from html, css, javascript, xml) and be well versed with programming paradigms and patterns. * understand build process. understand what is unit testing, how to write tests. * You need to be good with typing, ide shortcuts - its an important skill. * Debugging is also an essential skill - ide to the rescue. * read code - literally read code. understand what each line does, go with the flow, use debug points and figure out when and which and what gets triggered, evaluated and executed. You won't get commit rights right from the start, you need to build your reputation, that is only through finding bugs, triaging bugs, reporting bugs and fixing bugs. Communication skills is really important. You'd need to mail, irc, chat with fellow developers and committers. English is the medium of communication - better be good at it. Checkout some opensource projects, read the code, find and understand their bug tracking and request acceptance processes. See their bug tracking system, mailing lists and start up! If it feels daunting, don't worry. You'd get it eventually. But, most importantly - start! > > > Thanks > > Hameed ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

IMO, Linux is NOT fine to begin with. The code is way too big for a beginner to handle. And its something I would NEVER recommend for a newbie. Plus, it is extremely easy to get lost, frightened and disappear. The best place to start when it comes to OS would be small kernels. E.g. RTEMS, TinyOS, FreeRTOS, Ångström, ucLinux and the likes. You would have already guessed most of these relate to embedded systems which enforce a lot of resource constraints. So they have to be small and stripped off unnecessary crap. Once you learn one of these, you can graduate to Linux much more easily and then move ahead. My two cents. -- A ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

Pick one or more of those and fix them. +1 I'd go a step ahead and suggest the 'scratch your itch' approach instead of just lurking on bug trackers, thus not limiting you to any single app. There will surely be something about some application that bothers you -- the odd crash, some behaviour quirk that is just wrong, or some feature you would like to have in it. Download the source for that app, read the code and fix your own problem. Then you contribute your fix upstream. Of course, expect your patch to be rejected at least the first few hundred times. If it is rejected, understand why; that way you learn much more about the app. Somewhere down the line (a couple of years maybe, or more) you will find yourself fixing more bugs of some specific application than others, either because you understand the codebase better or find it interesting/challenging. -- Siddhesh Poyarekar http://siddhesh.in ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
