Bugzilla:Developers
So, you want to help out with Bugzilla development! Great! Here's what you should do (most items have link to more details):
1. Introduce yourself on the developers mailing list
2. Get in communication with the Bugzilla developers, and talk about what you want to do. This makes it easy for us to tell you "Oh, we're already working on that, you can help!" or "Oh, the best way to do that would be..."
3. If a bug has already been filed for what you want to do, check its priority.
4. Write some code. Make sure that you follow the Developer's Guide. If you're new, you don't have to read the whole thing. Just read the General Guidelines, the Style section, and any other part that you think applies to the code that you're writing.
5. Make a patch
6. Submit your patch in Bugzilla
7. Once your bug has passed review, the reviewer will ask for "approval". When approval is granted, you or the reviewer can commit the patch to CVS.
8. Commit your patch, or get somebody else to commit it for you.
