That sounds nice. We welcome help and patches. Please subscribe to
icecast-dev http://lists.xiph.org/mailman/listinfo/icecast-dev
We use that mailing list and the #icecast IRC channel to discuss ongoing
development.

While most of our code is cross-platform there might be acouple of
windows specific things where your experience might come in handy. For
example we're switching to mingw builds for windows, but need to figure
out how to ensure that the Icecast executable can be started as a
Windows service.

http://www.icecast.org/svn.php - has instructions for icecast sources.
ices sources are also there just need to change the url slightly:
svn co http://svn.xiph.org/icecast/trunk/ices ices
Open tickets can be found here:
https://trac.xiph.org/report/9
Please ask on IRC or the mailing list before taking a ticket and working on it
if it's not clearly marked as free to take and work on.
It would be very much appreciated if you could introduce yourself and what
you're planning to do on the developer mailing list. That helps to align
work and avoids problems.
Cheers
Thomas
