[ale] OSS Project

[james.sumners at gmail.com (James Sumners)]

The place to start is with a project you care about. Pick something
you use every day and look into how you can help it. Usually that
means looking through the bug list and working on some of the
outstanding bugs. Submit patches to the project and you will probably
make it onto the "team" at some point.

Anyone on this list could suggest any number of projects. But if you
don't have any interest in the project yourself, you won't be of much
use to the project.

"All governments suffer a recurring problem: Power attracts
pathological personalities. It is not that power corrupts but that it
is magnetic to the corruptible. Such people have a tendency to become
drunk on violence, a condition to which they are quickly addicted."
