🔗 Joining the SIG

Joining the LXQt SIG is as simple as being part of Fedora and having a love for LXQt. Once you are a contributor to Fedora, you can join the SIG by adding your name above and communicating with the rest of the team in the usual Fedora channels .

🔗 How you can help

If you have no idea how to help us with providing a good and qualitative excellent release of LXQt in Fedora here are some proposals where we need help:

  • Packagers: There are so many interesting packages that are not yet packaged for Fedora. Package it to improve the user experience.
  • Reviewers: Only a few persons are doing the LXQt-related reviews. Help us reviewing so that more packages could be included.
  • Testers: If you love LXQt use the development version or the updates-testing repository and report bugs, bugs, bugs, request enhancements or features. We need your feedback to improve LXDE.
  • Bugs: Become a BugZapper and help us with LXQt related bugs.
  • Documentation writers: Make sure that documentation of LXQt is high quality and complete in Fedora.
  • Release Notes: Help with writing the release notes
  • Wiki: Maintain http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/LXQt and keep it updated with end user information.
  • Artists: To provide a matching theme for nodoka-theme (or other??) and also other LXQt related artwork

🔗 Chat

We have informal chats about generally to Qt related but also special LXQt development in the #kde:fedoraproject.org under the blessing of KDE team, but there's also an official channel #lxqt:fedoraproject.org to discuss some specific things about LXQt and the spin. Refer to Communicate page for more information.
