How can I get involved with projects?
Most Admins / Moderators are experts at something else and we trying to spread the load so they don’t have to do anything if they don’t want to.
Currently I am training / working with 2 members to forward FTC specific projects. There are 3 Admin’s with open projects as well. The highest priority being :
Release / testing/ bug fixing / enhancements of FTC Wallet
Packaging releases, for snaps, bsd, flatpack and other software building and System maintenance.
New FTC web site / finish prototype.
Other Admins, such as @Lizhi and @Wellenreiter are doing similar with other projects, most Moderators are asked to become staff because they have done a guide or helped with a patch or project.
There are a large number of other projects which members have done, from suggestions, to fully documented requirements.
There is a lot of software written for Bitcoin or other coins which can be converted or used with Feathercoin. Again there is documentation to assist, but usually, make a thread, say what your doing and ask for help.
Here is where the more FTC specific or core activities threads are :
http://forum.feathercoin.com/category/71/technical-development
There is usually some associated threads, like an announcement in discussion.
For a project such as you are discussing, I have mad a thread “(>> 10 Open source softwares you should know about”, which documents interesting projects associated or that could be usfull in Alternate Currency side projects. such as peer to peer markets, mesh networks, IP2, DAOs and p2p exchanges.
You can also look for other projects in old suggestions, or search the forum as many interesting developments were discuses here first.
If you become trusted on the forum you will be asked if you wish to become a moderator great “new members” in the thread : http://forum.feathercoin.com/category/22/newbies-new-members-must-start-here
