This is a list of bugs that will serve as a good introduction to the Dreamwidth development workflow. They involve varying levels of rummaging up to your elbows in the guts of the code but I can promise that we'll all be only to pleased to help :-) If in doubt, just take a look at the list of things real DW programmers do...

Struck out bugs are ones that have been claimed but not yet resolved. All issues on this list are tagged curated: beginner - I update this post once a fortnight, but by all means check the GHI tag to see if there's anything I haven't mentioned yet! If you're after a challenge, you can also try looking at non-curated lower-effort issues, all unassigned issues, or rummage through [site community profile] dw_suggestions' bugzilla: migrated tag for features you'd like to implement. (If you do that last one, check to make sure that the entry isn't also tagged bugzilla: implemented, and that there isn't a corresponding assigned issue.)

Enjoy! And please do ask for help. Or cheerleading. Or anything else you feel like. ♥

Hello! I got a brand new dreamhack today, and I'm trying my hand at the simple whitelist bugs, but I can't verify my changes. I'm making changes to ~/dw/cgi-bin/DW/Hooks/EmbedWhitelist.pm, but the tests don't pick up the changes, nor does the behaviour change on my dreamhack. Any one have ideas on what I'm missing?

How do I get post comments through the API? I can get posts with LJ.XMLRPC.getevents, and in the original LJ there's a method called LJ.XMLRPC.getcomments, but when I tried it on DW API, I got "Client error: Unknown method". Not nice.

I've put up a post in [site community profile] dw_dev with details of the contributor event on the 14th and 15th of May. For bonus points, account creation is now working for the wiki, so documentation efforts are welcomed and encouraged!

I've also updated the masterlist of introductory bugs, with one new issue for a total of 18 unclaimed issues. If you've been thinking of getting involved I would be delighted if you showed up (virtually or in person) to the contributor event. As ever, here's how to get started. :-)

Two new issues (... and two older ones I'd overlooked), for a total of 13 unclaimed bugs.

There's a contributor weekend going on at the moment -- if you'd like company while you work on any of them, or cheerleading, or what have you, locals can come along in person and everybody else is super welcome to jump into IRC or PM me (or [personal profile] cesy) to set up telecommuting in by Skype or similar!

... with one new issue (adding DeviantArt as an option for listing accounts on other sites on your profile) for a total of eleven unclaimed issues.

Also, [personal profile] cesy is hosting a Dreamwidth contributor weekend in London next week. I ran one of these in November, and we had people telecommuting in (via Skype, Google video chat, and IRC) from places as far away as Australia. If you'd like some company while getting stuck into bugs, it'd be great to see you (virtually or otherwise) there!

... with four new issues, for a total of eleven unclaimed bugs.

I am as ever happy to answer questions or point you in appropriate directions! Issues include two things that need adding to the whitelist, and two places where the code machete needs wielding to tidy things up.

This fortnight I've got two new issues for you (relating to state selection and silent truncation of tags when renaming), bringing us up to nine unclaimed issues! Questions welcomed and encouraged :-)
