🔗 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
🔗 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.
