How can I help?

Check out the research and brain storm that went into this first: hackpad.

If you have information or ideas that you think would be helpful, add it there.

On the tech side, we use "issues" to organize our work. Please head over to the wiki for instructions on how to use issues and get into the code.

The sections Getting Ungentry Set Up, and How to Help! will be most useful.
