Hello everyone, my name's Valerio, i'm italian and i study computer science at University of Pisa. I'm honored to speak and learn from people like you. My knowledge of C language is not very advanced, but i know Python well enough. I really like to contribute, i can learn and improve a lot. This is the first time that i participate in a serious, large and complex project. Have you any advice for me? :)

Head over to http://bugs.python.org and look for items with the "easy" tag. Alternatively, look for items with attached patches and download, apply and test them out to see if they work as advertised. I think there's a page on the wiki with suggestions on how to get started, but I don't have a link handy - hopefully someone else will chime in with it.

Python should have something like gnome-love ( http://live.gnome.org/GnomeLove ). Some bugs on bugzilla is tagged with gnome-love which are fairly easy and especially created to help dive in new developers. On Tue, Mar 30, 2010 at 4:00 AM, <skip@pobox.com> wrote:

I don't know what gnome love is (and would be hesitant to click on any such links, especially at work) but on bugs.python.org such items are tagged "easy". Right on the front page is a link with the label "Show Easy". Skip

The difference between "gnome-love" and "easy" tags is that the latter can only be flagged by code devs (who usually do not have much time to review bugs). -- anatoly t.

The #python-dev IRC channel on freenode is a useful place to hangout if you have realtime questions. Michael
