to anyone who has the time, knowledge, and desire to contribute

to improve <SPAN

> The first step is to join the <A

TARGET="_top"

>.
You can submit your ideas, or even better patches. Patches are best
submitted to the Sourceforge tracker set up for this purpose, but
can be sent to the list for review too.

> You will also need to have a cvs package installed, which will
entail having ssh installed as well (which seems to be a requirement of
SourceForge), in order to access the cvs repository. Having the GNU build
tools is also going to be important (particularly, autoconf and gmake).
</P
><P
> For the time being (read, this section is under construction), you can
also refer to the extensive comments in the source code. In fact,
reading the code is recommended in any case.
