General Development Having written open source software myself, and being a subscriber to mailing lists, etc, there is a realization that the number one thing missing from smaller open source projects is feedback from users.

RE: Contributers!

I would gladly contribute to open source applications.

Seriously, I have so much spare time, (being a student whose just finished college and can't be arsed getting into a better job than part-time at McShitHole), that I'd love to contribute code and ideas to an establised project.

But you know what... I don't know a damn thing about coding. C? Ha, yeah, that stuff confuses the hell out of me. Perl? Reading someone elses Perl is like beating my head against a plank of wood.

I'm willing to learn, but I have no idea where to start. The most I know is some PHP(/SQL), and perhaps some BASIC from my younger days, (read: 9 years old).

So, teach me C/C++ or whatever language you're coding in, and I'll make you some stuff. Until then, the most I can do is submit the occasional bug report.
