[Kdenlive-devel] Proposal for contribution from university

[Evert Vorster]

Hi there, Dani, and welcome.

A good place to start for anyone that knows how to code but is new to
a project is to hunt down a few bugs.

In keeping with that, it might be a good idea for your "task force" to
get accounts at mantis, our bug tracker:
www.kdenlive.org/mantis/my_view_page.php

Go through the open ( and fixed! ) bugs and feature requests there,
and then grab a copy of the source
and have a little competition to see who can squash the most bugs!

I think that will be the quickest way for them to learn how everything
fits together, and be of the greatest value to the project.

I hope that one of the developers here reply and accept your patches,
or provide a vetting process.

Unfortunately, I have never had the benefit of coding at school, and
all I do around here is to test kdenlive and report bugs.

I hope that this helps?

Kind regards,
Evert Vorster
