7 <h2>Contribute to phpMyAdmin</h2>
10 As a free software project, phpMyAdmin is very open to your contributions. You don't
11 need developer skills to help, there are several non-coding ways to get involved
12 in a project (code is welcome too, of course!).
15 <h3>Helping users</h3>
18 Interested in helping other users to use phpMyAdmin? You can join any of
19 <a href="${base_url}support.${file_ext}">support</a> we provide and help users
20 there - IRC, mailing lists and web forums, where you can share your experience.
23 <h3 id="translate">Localization</h3>
26 phpMyAdmin is being translated to many languages, but maybe your language is not
27 really up to date? You can easily contribute on our
28 <a href="https://l10n.cihar.com/projects/phpmyadmin/">translation server</a>.
29 You can find out more on <a href="${base_url}translate.${file_ext}">translation
33 <h3>Testing and quality assurance</h3>
36 One of important things is to avoid problems in user interface. You can really help
37 us here to provide feedback on releases and especially by testing pre-releases
38 (alpha/beta/rc) we provide for testing. Just download them and <a href="http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=377408&group_id=23067">report any issues</a>
42 <h3>Documentation writer</h3>
46 feel our documentation misses some points? We welcome additions, just
47 let us know how you think the documentation can be improved. You can
48 open a <a href="http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=23067&atid=377410">patch tracker</a> item with your suggestions. Should
49 you know git, you can directly submit patches, but this is not necessary.
52 <h3 id="devel">Developing</h3>
55 Coding contributions are very welcome, the easiest way is to for our code on github
56 and submit a merge request. We really welcome bug fixes or new features.

61 <h3>Fund our project</h3>
64 We need money to allow our presence on conferences, buy new hardware or provide various
65 useful services to our users and developpers. By <a href="${base_url}donate.${file_ext}">donating</a>
66 you help us in this area and possibly increase our presence on conferences.
