yes, it's the BUG-O-MATIC! it slices! it dices!
Round and around and around it goes; where it stops, only D knows!
Several people in irc have mentioned how much they like it when I pull out bugs that I particularly want done and try to match them up with people to do them, since it takes the pressure of having to pick a bug to work on away from them. I am offering to do the same for people who don't frequent irc, or are never there when I'm around!
If you want me to suggest for you a selection of bugs that I think you might enjoy working on, tell me:
* Your experience level (n00b, beginner, middling-fair, experienced, hot shit)
* Any areas you particularly like working on
* Any areas you particularly hate working on
* Any areas of the code you know you don't know, or that confuse you or whatever, and you don't particularly want to learn right now
* Your favorite patch you've written so far (the one you were most proud of, the one that was most fun to do, etc)
* Whether you're looking for something simple or complex, and how much free time you have to devote to DW in the next month or so
I will then suggest for you a list of 3-5 bugs that I think you might enjoy doing! There is no obligation involved -- the bugs will not be automatically assigned to you, nor will they be your responsibility to fix. This is just an opportunity to get a selection of bugs pointed out to you that you might not pick out of the 600-some open bugs clamoring for attention, in the hopes you might find something interesting to work on.

* I'm a total n00b.
* I don't think there's an area I particularly like or hate working on. Not knowing anything I take anything I think I can try and fix.
* There are so many areas of the code I don't know if would be pointless to list them. Also I don't quite know what you mean by areas of code. :/
* Hmm. I'm most proud of the patches I've done where I felt I was completely in over my head and which took me a bit of investigating to find where I should get started (because there are so many areas of code I don't know? ;)). So maybe #840 or #2593.
* I can't do complex so... Let's say I have some free time.
