Getting Involved

Community Code exists to help as many people as possible contribute to OpenSource software. You can:

• AboutCommunityCode : find out who we are and what we're trying to do

• Get involved in a CommunityCodeProject -- mentoring and support for OpenSource hackers, Open Knowledge contributors etc. You can:

  • MentorOthers -- if you have experience contributing to OpenSource, we want you! You will be paired with participants who are keen to help OpenSource projects, but don't really know how. Your job will be to help them to learn how OpenSource works, and assist them to find useful projects, and guide them and encourage them as they learn and grow.

  • BecomeAParticipant: Get mentoring in the world of OpenSource and work on a CommunityCodeProject.

  • Fufil your fufil MutualObligation requirements through your OpenSource work.

• Get involved in the CommunityCodeOrganisation

• SpreadTheWord -- if you don't want to take part in CommunityCode as a mentor or participant, don't worry! Tell others about our existence, and you'll have done your part to expand the OpenSource community too. See InTheMedia for existing press coverage.
