Dear Archers,
I've seen there will be an online bug squashing with Archers worldwide during Archcon on July 22 and 23 <http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=83844>.
I've set some time apart to join the fun. However, I am an Arch newbie, though long standing Linux user. What will there be for me to do? Can you find me some trivial tasks? Most bugs I find in flyspray are beyond my capabilities -- X.org flaws or missing hardware support.
I think I could update simple package builds, or correct a wrong path here and there. Apart from that, I am quite good at writing documentation. Should I comb the Arch wiki?
Do I need to have a spare Arch system at hand to test things? Maybe someone could take this newbie by the hand?
Cheers, Mathias
Have you taken a look at the following wiki? http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Getting_Involved If you truly don't possess any coding skills (web included), then I think helping out in the wiki would be most appreciated. I don't have any other ideas :/
