Introduction/ Wanting to Contribute to Firefox OS Cordova
Hey all,
I just wanted to introduce myself. I'm looking to start contributing and helping out with the project especially on the Firefox OS platform. I've been working on a PhoneGap-based app initially for iOS and Android platform.
It looks like - Firefox OS Jira/commits - there are only quite a handful of activities, so I'd like to help whenever I can. I've signed the ICLA, browsed Jira & wiki [1] . I made a little jump start by fixing an issue in Jira [2] and sent out a pull request [3], and a few other commits [4] but I need the guidance from the group in moving forward and setting out the top priorities.
I don't have a dev device on my side, unfortunately, but the simulator should suffice ATM. A little info about how I got interested into Firefox OS, I joined the Mozilla Meetup in Auckland last October and saw the dev device before it was officially announced to the public. The Mozilla Auckland office is just around my place so hopefully they would be kind enough to lend a hand if I/we needed some help.

Thanks Filip!
Yes I've submitted my application to Mozilla few hours after the news [2] went out, hoping for a positive feedback though. Cheers

Hey Richard, welcome!
Also worth noting that our test suite is called mobile spec [1] - wrap
that up in a phonegap shell and you should get a good idea of how well the
implementation works.
I attended and hacked on a project for Mozilla App Days in Vancouver a
couple months back and ended up getting a Keon phone for the results.
Apparently Moz has a similar thing going on now [2] that might be a good
way to get your hands on a phone for free/cheap.
