<p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Hi Giorgios,</p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">happy to see you want to help. There are many ways you can help plasma developing:</p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">- Create plasmoids: plasmoid can be created using C++, Python, Ruby, Javascritpt. In the</p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">next KDE version (4.6) it will be possible to create plasmoids with QML. If you want to </p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">create plasma widgets really nice in a easy way, I recomend you to learn QML: the Qt</p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">site is really useful (http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/gettingstartedqml.html), then you can see </p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">examples of QML plasmoids on SVN (http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/playground/base/</p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">plasma/kinetic-declarative/).<br></p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><br></p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">- Develop Plasma shells: actually we are developing Plasma Desktop, Plasma Netbook, and</p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Plasma Media Center. We are also collecting idea for Plasma Classroom. You can find </p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">informations about these projects on techbase. If you need some other particular explanations</p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">just ask.<br></p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><br></p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">- Fixing bugs: you can take a look at bugs with bugs.kde.org: register on it and then start to see</p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">what can you solve. When you have written a solution (and seen that it works) you can submit</p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">it using the reviewboard.kde.org service. First of all, take a look at SVN, GIT, and reviewboard</p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">documentation.<br></p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><br></p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">I hope to have been useful, thanks for joining us.<br></p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><br></p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Luca Tringali</p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><br></p>

You said plasma, what in plasma do you want to do? do you have a specific plasmoid need/idea? (there are already lots of them) Anything else?</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;" mce_style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px">Then you will look at the appropriate tools and language for it.</p>
