There isn't really any code to show for Decibel yet, but hopefully that will 
change real soon now. :)

If you're interested in doing web development, I believe that the folks over 
on the KDE web team could really use some help. I would check with the 
kde-www mailing list (kde-www at kde.org). 

If you'd rather do C++ development with the Qt and KDE libraries, I have 
plenty of tasks that need to be done, some small, some not, that I'd be glad 
to work with you on if you'd like to do that.

Of course, if you just want to wait until some decibel code drops, that's fine 
too. :) I'm just trying to take advantage of the fresh-meat, errr, gracious 
willing soul that's offering to help out. (j/k about the fresh-meat part, of 
course) :)
