Greetings again, and thank you. I did spend some time on the site and Savannah, and created accounts on both. I'll tell you that looking over the project was a little intimidating (since I'm not a coder), but I did see a few places where I could help out with some of the perhaps more tedious jobs. There are plenty of teams on the site, and it appears that there's plenty to do. One thing first: I saw on Savannah that before jumping into asking permission to be added to a project, that the "applicant" should reach the project leader(s) through another means, like the project's mailing list. So I imagine that this would be the place to talk to someone? And this may be a dumb question, but given the need for coders, is there honestly a point for a non-coding person at this time? I don't want to jump in and start doing things that aren't particularly useful to anyone at this point, and have anyone thinking, "Oh, yay, thank you for doing that thing...that really doesn't serve any purpose at this point...." Silly question maybe, but I have zero experience joining something like this. I'm a good independent learner, but I'm not familiar with "the system" here.
