I'd like to add some details to this.

The requirement to contribute is writing Python code.
Frescobaldi is developed with PyQt, but it isn't really a requirement to 
know that beforehand. It's quite possible to dive into this while 
getting acquainted with the code base.

You will need some time to get your way through the architecture, but 
Frescobaldi is written very cleanly so it is as easy as possible to 
understand it. The only thing one could argue about (and that can make 
it somewhat harder to get into it) is the rather sparing use of code 
comments.

If you should actually start to contribute you will notice that there is 
a very welcoming spirit towards contributions :-)

Best
Urs
