Hi,

I was wondering if there was a "getting started" guide of sorts on how to help out with the project? I'm a sysadmin by trade, but my developer skills are a bit weak. Is there a way that I could help with anything? I would like to learn how to do packaging and such, and how to search for upstream branding stuff and repackage a file, as that seems like something I could probably start out with.

Thanks.

Hi Kenny

Here is a great starting place

http://wiki.centos.org/Contribute

Helping in IRC or the forums and participating on the mailing lists is a great start. If you are interested in packaging I have many links for that as well that have been passed on to me by CentOS people that will help you get started with that as well, if you are interested.
