Getting started Getting started at coding is a matter of finding something to fix, and fixing it. Once you have fixed something, you will want to send in a patch. If you do that a few times, you may want to apply for an SVN account so you can fix things directly. It is recommended that you join the vlc-devel mailing list, where all commits are archived.
