How To Help

Thanks to Will, Matt and others (including Hasta AB for hosting and hardware), KDE on FreeBSD has a fully-loaded development and testing site at the FruitSalad Project. See the FruitSalad Ingredients for a complete rundown on the current and projected resources available to KDE and FreeBSD developers as well as KDE on FreeBSD users.

If you'd like an account on one of the boxes of the FruitSalad Project, contact Lauri.

KDE on FreeBSD TODO List

The official "I'd do it if I had the time and/or skills to do it" KDE on FreeBSD TODO List. A great place to check to see what is just sitting around waiting for someone like you.

Porting KDE Applications to FreeBSD

Nearly all Qt and KDE applications are listed on the KDE Applications web site. Try to find an interesting application that is not yet in the FreeBSD ports tree. Read the FreeBSD Porters Handbook to find out how to make a port. If you have any questions, ask on the KDE on FreeBSD mail list.

KDE Documentation

KDE has a fairly ambitious Documentation Project which has generated documentation for many of the existing KDE applications. Of course, there are some applications that have scanty (or no) documentation, and there are new applications being written all the time that will need documentation. If your skill set includes an ability to write, the KDE Editorial Team would love to hear from you.

KDE Translations

Being a truly international project, KDE is available in many languages, and someone has to translate both the application and the documentation. While some of these projects are fairly large, there are some that require minimal translations, so there is a project that will fit both your language facilities and your time schedule. Again, if you can help, contact the KDE Editorial Team.
