Hi Wilhelm,

We do welcome volunteers. As with most open source projects, the new  
contributors initially submit the code in the form of patches via  
Jira bug tracker [1]. This process is designed so that they can  
gradually build the trust of the community. When this happens they  
may be granted full commit access.

So do you have interest in specific parts of Cayenne? If so, let us  
know, if not - also not a problem. Start by familiarizing yourself  
with the code [2], at least make sure you can check out and build  
Cayenne :-) After that you can pick up tasks in one of the areas of  
development. Here is a high level list of we are working on:

* A list of bugs and features scheduled for the next 3.0 release [3]
* JPA provider tasks
* JPA provider integration tests
* Cayenne Modeler GUI development
* ...

If any of these interest you, I can elaborate in more details.

Finally, please continue all Cayenne-related communications via this  
list.

Cheers,
Andrus
