Oke, it might look it bit different, but actual developing on this is just
as easy as on any other project.

First download the latest revision. You do this from the Terminal
application. Issue the following commands:

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous at anoncvs.videolan.org:/var/cvs/videolan login

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous at anoncvs.videolan.org:/var/cvs/videolan -z3
checkout libdvdcss

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous at anoncvs.videolan.org:/var/cvs/videolan -z3
checkout vlc
 
Now you need to go into the libdvdcss dir type:
cd libdvdcss

Now build libdvdcss
./configure
make

Now open the Project Builder file. It is located in vlc/Extras/MacOSX
You can now edit the files. Only those concerning the interface though. The
core video system etc is not in this project.
Once you are done editing return to the Terminal.

Go inside the vlc dir (use cd command) Type:
./configure
make

This takes quite a while. When it is done, the vlc application will be in
the vlc dir.

If your changes are finished, mail the changes you made (preferably in the
form of a patch) to the developers.
