I am new to linux (so to wayland) , from a Microsoft windows

Learning to use linux and also learning more about it . I looked
into the wayland project and found its young (sorry if I am wrong ),
thought I could contribute with some bug fixing ,later contribute to
it more .
I also learnt that many mainstream Linux like Ubuntu& Fedora have
plans for this .
Right now since it is 1000 lines of code or more , it should be easy
to get a grip of it .Above in the mail I have mentioned my
background so that , please what to actually start with . Like
books/tutorials to learn about Window managers / opengl / anything
that is relevant so that once I gone through them ,I can have some
understanding and start with Bug Fixing . Or provide me some info
for like "Getting Started ......." ..
As Serhiy mentioned, just to give a try Wayland on your machine and building
it is a nice exercise to understand the components involved and the
architecture. You can spend some good time also reading Wayland the page and
understanding the ideas behind it:
http://wayland.freedesktop.org/
Later on, you can hang a bit on the mailing list, try to understand the
patches coming, help with the review, apply them and eventually contribute
with new ones. I guess the open-source way of collaboration probably will be
the big difference for you coming from Windows platform.
Have fun!

Hi ,

say "make"
