This message is for those who wants to help Wine
project but do not know where to start.

We need contributors of a wide range of skills.
The minimal requirements are:
access to a computer with Linux (or other Unix-like
system) where you can use Wine.

We have a lot of tasks which are relatively easy to
do.
The fact that these tasks are easy does not mean they
are not important.

Examples of the easiest non-programming tasks
available:
* we *badly* need application owners. An application
owner is a person who often uses some application and
will help to make it work perfectly under Wine.
Does anybody use Lotus Notes regulary under Wine?
* confirm and research bugs in Wine Bugzilla
http://bugs.winehq.com
* Add a 'Debunking Wine Myths' web page
http://bugs.winehq.com/show_bug.cgi?id=606

Examples of the easiest programming tasks available:
* Help Wine hackers - document Wine debugging channels
http://bugs.winehq.com/show_bug.cgi?id=638
* Improve RichEdit headers
http://bugs.winehq.com/show_bug.cgi?id=330

Easy, aren't they?

Do you need more choice?
* file BUGS in the Wine source tree gives more
information how you can help the project
* bug 406 contains list of issues which is easy to
fix.
Don't be afraid to fix all the easy issues, so nothing
will be left to others. We'll gladly add more! :-)
http://bugs.winehq.com/showdependencytree.cgi?id=406
* suggest your help on wine-devel mailing list. Don't
forget to mention your skills, experience and what you
want to work on.

If you want to know more - just ask.

Have fun!
