 <h2>Getting Involved</h2>

 <p>The best way to get involved in Subversion development is to <a
 href="hacking.html#patches" >submit a patch</a> to fix a bug or add a
 new feature.  If you don't know what to write a patch for, have a look
 at the <a href="issue-tracker.html#find" >list of open issues</a>.</p>

 <p>Subversion development discussion takes place on the mailing list
 <a
 href="mailto:dev@subversion.tigris.org">dev@subversion.tigris.org</a>.
 You don't need to subscribe to the list just to <a
 href="hacking.html#patches" >submit a patch</a> or two, but if you
 want to be involved with Subversion development on a regular basis,
 you should subscribe.  It's high-traffic, but threading tends to be
 fairly disciplined, so you can ignore conversations you aren't
 interested in.</p>

 <p>For real-time chat, developers use the IRC channel <a
 href="irc://irc.freenode.net/svn-dev">irc.freenode.net/svn-dev</a>
 (some also hang out in the user-support channel, <a
 href="irc://irc.freenode.net/svn">irc.freenode.net/svn</a>).</p>

 <p>The <a href="hacking.html">Hacker's Guide to Subversion</a>
 contains information about submitting patches, learning your way
 around the code, interacting with other developers, project
 governance, etc.  If you don't see the answers you need there, please
 ask on the mailing list or in IRC, we're happy to help.</p>

 <p>You should probably also subscribe to the following lists that
 receive automated mails:</p>

 <ul>
 <li><strong>svn@subversion.tigris.org</strong> (commit emails)</li>
 <li><strong>issues@subversion.tigris.org</strong> (issue tracker)</li>
 <li><strong>svn-breakage@subversion.tigris.org</strong> (automated builds)</li>
 </ul>

 <p>...all of which are available via the <a
 href="http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectMailingListList"
 >project mailing lists page</a>.</p>

 <h2>Translating Subversion output</h2>

 <p>Subversion's programmatic output is translated into many languages,
 and this work is done by volunteers.  You could be one of those
 volunteers.</p>
