See Home for the full target feature list for the next feature release.

Below are a list of activities for hackers who would like to contribute, but that doesn’t require a great deal of coding skills. Don’t worry, I'm more than happy to help guide you and answer any questions. Take a quick look at the Hacking page for additional info on contributing.

  1. Translations are really easy to contribute. You can contribute a translation in your language, even if you don’t know git or C++. Copy the translations/bangarang.pot file into your favorite text editor and start translating by filling in a msgstr corresponding to each msgid. However, it is recommended to use a dedicated po-editor like Lokalize (from KDE SDK). In most cases the context in which the string is used is obvious. In case the context isn’t quite make obvious, run bangarang and look for the string in the interface. If you can’t find it, and you know a little C++ it might help to look at the line(s) of code in which the string is used; the lines are shown above each msgid. Save the file as bangarang.po and email me. If you’re comfortable with git, you’re encouraged to clone the repository, make your changes, test them and do a merge request. It might also help to look at the files in some of the other directories under translations to see what to do. Don’t worry if you can’t translate every single string. In most cases a partial translation is better than none.

  2. Translation of .desktop files. Sometimes forgotten, these files contain strings that show up in the application launcher and in the actions list when a CD or DVD is inserted.

Of course, if you'd like to work on something not listed here then go right ahead! Let me know if you need any guidance or help. If you can think of Juniour Jobs to add here let me know.

Happy hacking!
