Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] New developer - how to start?

Hi Dipanjan,

There isn't really a formal registration process, but registering at http://bugs.wireshark.org/ is a good place to start. As for "tasks" - there isn't a formal list of mandatory activities (but there is a wishlist on the wiki, which might be vaguely interesting); and things are fairly ad-hoc - you just think "I'd like to implement feature X", do it, and post a diff on the bug tracker.

If you think that you're going to do something that conflicts with what others are doing, then it's a good idea to ask on this list, first.

I hope that helps - and welcome aboard!

Tyson.

Hi Developers,

I want to get myself involved in the development of Wireshark. Can anybody please let me know about the following:
  1. Is there anywhere I need to get myself registered as a developer?
  2. How are the tasks splitted across?
  3. How is the synchronization among developers done?
TIA.

Thanks & Regards,

Dipanjan
