Cocoon Profiler development

[András Hatvani <an...@gmail.com>]

Hello,

I would like to work on the Cocoon Profiler, but since I never worked
on an open source project I have no idea where to start.
Can you please advise me where to start?

Thanks in advance,
Andras Hatvani

What exactly do you have in mind? Have you already been working with it 
and do you want to extent its functionality?

The first thing is usually to have a look at the open source. Therefore 
get your copy from the SVN repository. Depending on the size of your 
potential contribution it's a good idea to discuss about your proposal 
on this list. Finally you can raise an enhancement request in our issue 
tracking system Jira and attach your code/patch there. After this it's 
up to us to apply the change - which unfortunately takes too often too 
much time. Bugging us frequently might help ;) Most of the stuff is 
explained in more detail at http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/1177.html (not 
every information in it might be up to date).

Hope this helps and gets you started.
