subscribe to devel list, read thread you are interested in, the tasks will appear by themselves ;) > I know all the information is there in the website, but at first it might be > a bit daunting for a newbie to sort out. personally i like the layout as it is now, but you are right there are many things to be polished and there is nobody who really cares about web. i have tried to remove the oldest and obsolete stuff recently but it was more of emergency shot then some real overhaul. instead of hiding some links away i would suggest to create one special page for newbies which will have some very visible link in the front page. > How does that sound? I don't have much web dev skill, but I'm just > interested in changing the content of the front page and so on.

Are there > any small Python tasks that are particularly in need of getting done? i remeber some recent python things (can give you pointers if you are interested) - request of csv2lyx: table import (now in perl and buggy) - conversion of lfun doxy docs to lyx (now in bash) it happen from time to time somebody request on list python lyx2lyx conversion too. if you are interested in documentation itself i guess Uwe could provide you todo list :) there is also lfun documentation task, which wont be finished before 1.6 unless somebody helps. pavel
