Newbie startup problems

Hi,

I am new to GIMP (its source, usage and features). I had joined this list with a view to contribute to GIMP.
I did manage to get it to compile and run (though my code is old - about a month or two).

Currently I am giving the manual a try (to get used to GIMP), but its HUGE and a lot of features for me to learn. :( or :) ? The wiki took me here: http://gimp-wiki.who.ee/index.php/Hacking:Source_Tree

Can somebody suggest what can be done as a start off? All help appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I suggest having a look though the bugtracker, the wiki, relevant user forums and the archives for this bugtracker to see if you find anything that suits you. Find a problem you're interested in solving. If you cannot find that, but still think you want to do something, just pick a task and have a go at it.

Oh, an overview on the organization of the source tree!

Thanks!

I didn't knew that link.

Thanks!

Ciao, Oliver

More complete and up-to-date documentation can be found in the devel-docs folder of the source tree. Here is also the place where any new developer documentation should be added.
