You can then search for bugs, see if you know how to fix them, submit patches and more. You could look at the QA team's documentation[1] for a complete workflow. Please note that fedora is "downstream", that is, we take software from developers ("upstream") and package it to our users. If you're really interested in bug fixing, you'd be better of working with upstream directly. This will ensure that all of upstreams users receive your fixes, and not just fedora. Fedora package maintainers will in-fact send your fixes upstream, in accordance with our policy of staying in close contact with them[2] PS: cc'ing the join list so everyone can benefit from the thread :) [1] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Join [2] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Staying_close_to_upstream_projects -- Thanks, Warm regards, Ankur: "FranciscoD" Please only print if necessary.
