Great. First off, decide whether you want to help more on the UI (kdenlive) or the backend (mlt). The frontend is all C++/KDE/Qt. The backend is all C99 with a minimal C++ wrapper. You can briefly review code to get a feeling for what things are implemented in which files and the coding styles. Maybe a good way to start is locating bugs or locating why something isn't working the way you expect. You will have to submit at least a couple of legitimate patches before getting commit access to the repository. Alternatively, a newer model of open source development is to make a "git" tree based on the repository and then publish your git tree to the mailing list. Then, people can test it and developers choose to merge things into the repository. On Aug 16, 2007, at 12:03 AM, Doran L.
