| <p>You can help the project in various ways, the best thing to do first is to |
| subscribe to the mailing-list as explained before, check the <a href="http://mail.gnome.org/archives/xml/">archives </a>and the <a href="http://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?product=libxml">Gnome bug |
| database</a>:</p> |
| <ol> |
| <li>Provide patches when you find problems.</li> |
| <li>Provide the diffs when you port libxml to a new platform. They may not |
| be integrated in all cases but help pinpointing portability problems |
| and</li> |
| <li>Provide documentation fixes (either as patches to the code comments or |
| as HTML diffs).</li> |
| <li>Provide new documentations pieces (translations, examples, etc |
| ...).</li> |
| <li>Check the TODO file and try to close one of the items.</li> |
| <li>Take one of the points raised in the archive or the bug database and |
| provide a fix. <a href="mailto:daniel@veillard.com">Get in touch with me |
| </a>before to avoid synchronization problems and check that the suggested |
| fix will fit in nicely :-)</li> |
