If you want to help with Mesa, first join the Mesa developer's
|
|
mailing list. Then post a message explaining what you might like
|
|
to help with. The Mesa web page has a list of a few work items
|
|
which you may consider.

Unfortunately, all the easy work in Mesa was done years ago. Nowadays, the
|
|
work is rather complicated and not suited to beginners.

If you're contribution code to the Mesa library itself:
|
|
<p>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>Try to write clean code (uniform indentation, comments, meaningful
|
|
identifiers, etc). It must be readable and maintainable!
|
|
|
|
<li>Test your code. On several occations I've incorporated code from
|
|
users which later turned out to have bugs. Now, I'm pretty hesitant
|
|
to use code which doesn't look good.
|
|
