Hi im interested in contributing to the wine project by doing coding for them. I can program in c i have been for a while now. But i've never really contributed to anything, never realleased bug fixes or anything. I'm just looking for some advice on how to get started i've looked at the website at the development section but i don't think it really explains how to get started. I don't think im a brilliant programmer but i think im alright at programming, im also currently a student in the UK. So im just wondering if anyone can give me some advice on how to get started and maybe explain how some of you got started with wine development.

That's the first step. - Dan
