🔗 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

🔗 IRC Channel

We have informal chats about LXQt development in #fedora-kde IRC channel in freenode under the blessing of KDE team. Refer to Communicate page for more information.
