Hi everyone/devs

Sorry for hijacking this thread but I thought its better not to start a new thread just for this Smile

I am a student from Australia and am currently doing a Free & Open Source course at Uni. As part of the course, I am supposed to get involved in a open source project of my choice and xbmc android remote seems really interesting.

I am wondering on how I can contribute, be it fixing/reporting bugs, writing documentation or even localisation. Anything really! Would like to discuss further with a dev on the possibility of getting involved. Would the forums or the IRC channel be better for this? Thanks:-)

Hi lewin,

Thanks for your interest, you're not the first student interested in this project. Smile The best is if you checkout the source, compile it and load it on your phone. Then play around with it and familiarize with the code. Also check out the Wiki on Google Code, there are some design-related pages.

Open issues can be found here. Relatively easily to accomplish are probably issues 88, 91, 96, 113, 114 and 134.

We're most of the time on IRC (#xbmc-android on Freenode), however we're all from Europe so we may be sleeping when you're up.

And it's probably the best if you open a new thread for any further questions.

Always read the XBMC online-manual, FAQ and search the forums before posting. Do NOT e-mail Team-XBMC members asking for support. For troubleshooting and bug reporting, make sure you read this first.

Thanks for the quick response freezy.

I'm already looking at the code and hopefully will begin working on those issues as soon as I have everything setup. Will open a new thread if I have any further questions & I am also already parked in the channel.

Cheers
