[Kde-games-devel] I want to help

Hi,

I want to help with KDE Games. I've been using linux for years now and have 
always wanted to contribute, but never really found time while I was doing my 
degree, but now I'm finished and have some spare time on my hands. :)

I have a reasonable knowledge of C++, which I taught myself in order to do my 
final year project at university (which was to write an AI to play the game 
of Go). I have recently taught myself the basics of Qt 3 and 4 by writing a 
basic asteroids clone in Qt 3 and then porting it to Qt 4.2 (including 
changing all the Canvas stuff to the new Graphics View Framework, so I know a 
little of that too now), and now I want to make use of my new skills! 

So my question is, what should I do next? I really have no idea how 
far along porting games to KDE 4 you are, but I'd be happy to help with that 
if it is needed (KDE 4 sounds incredible!). Or would it be more useful to just 
do fixes for bugs in games in KDE 3? 

Also, I love Kolf! So would love to do stuff related to that.

Thanks

Paul
