{{Main page/Leftbox|title=Get involved!
  |contents=If you would like to help with FlightGear's development, it's a good idea to subscribe yourself to the FlightGear development [[mailing list]]. Use the list or the FlightGear [http://code.google.com/p/flightgear-bugs issue tracker] to get in touch with fellow FlightGear core developers.


Visit [[:Category:Core development projects]] to see a list of currently ongoing projects!
{{Main page/Leftbox|title=Put a piece of yourself into FlightGear!
  |contents=In FlightGear, "development" is [[Howto:Understand the FlightGear development process|anything that improves the project]]. So, it's not just code-related [[Howto:Start core development|core development]]. There's also [[Portal:Developer/Scenery|scenery development]], [[Portal:Developer/Aircraft|aircraft development]] and all the stuff you can see in the column here on the left. If you want an extended overview, check out the [[Volunteer]] page.
 
Actually that's not all you can contribute. There's also documentation, with the [[FlightGear Manual]]... and this wiki of course! To contribute to the wiki, head off to the [[Portal:Wiki|Wiki Portal]]. There's a lot to do there too.
 
If you want to get in touch with other developers, register an account at the [http://forum.flightgear.org/viewforum.php?f=18 forum], and for core development subscribe to the [[mailing list]] too and consider visiting the {{tickets|issue tracker}}.
 
Remember: we might call it volunteering, but what should drive you is [[How the FlightGear project works|the fun of doing something]].

'''Help needed:'''  


{{cquote|There are some pending merge requests to add some YASim features, but we have an issue that since none of the current C++ developers own, or are experts in YASim, we're reluctant to be the person who merges such changes, and potentially introduces subtle regressions.

Obviously this is chicken-and-egg, since no one can become expert enough in the  code to become a maintainer :)
