[vlc-devel] Anything you need me to work on?

[Ryan Li]

Thanks for the responses. I did subscribe so I'm hopeful to hear about 
more interesting stuff to come. I think a documentation project sounds 
like a great idea, except do you happen to have a place to start, in terms of what hasn't been covered yet? Anything where I could contribute to the hackers guide or modules docs? I'm on a windows 8 and have successfully built the project and connected to the git repo as well. Looking forward to hearing more!

 VLC is a huge amalgamation of open-source libraries any number of which haveplenty of rabbit holes you might get lost in.  I think you should start at a documentationproject, a programmers' guide.  Hardly any of these projects have such, I'm guessingat 90% probablilty whatever might exist on this one is paltry.  The good news is, the project does build itself (I succeeded on my first try with only a few re-starts).  It depends on a lot of sub-systems that have a tendency to bit-rot.The main benefactor of documentation such as this would be yourself, the author, having pondered the software in terms of its parts and as a whole.

Hi,

My name is Randy and I'm new to the group. I'm a student in college right now, I have a few years of programming experience, and I joined so that I could sharpen my programming skills. I've looked around the various sites including the bug tracker and the wiki page. Do you guys have any recommendations on what bug/miniproject would make me be helpful to the cause right now or for the foreseeable future?

Thanks!
