There are some really easy bugs (http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1318) some medium (http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1352) and some real stinkers (http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1340). They would be encouraged to contact the list first on choosing a feature request or bug to look at. It would also be useful if they were given general information on how to interact with free software communities (e.g. http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Software-Release-Practice-HOWTO/patching.html) > Also, if students get stuck, would they be able to get any help? I think we'd all be happy to help. regards john -- Khendon's Law: If the same point is made twice by the same person, the thread is over.
