  Answer questions
  
  Many developers and users hang out on #twisted and #twisted.web on freenode asking and answering questions. They are great places to both learn more about Twisted by osmosis and get a feel for the contribution process.
  
  The http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python and http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-web mailing lists are another way to ask questions, get design feedback, and get release announcements.

  Tip:
  
  Many projects have good small tasks that can teach newcomers how the project works. Now's your chance to share one of them!
  
  Include URLs if relevant (we'll automatically linkify them).
  
  Example:
  
  Someone could improve the photo upload dialog box so that it lets you resize the photo before sending it to the web.
Q: What is a bug or issue with Twisted that you've been putting off, neglecting, or just plain avoiding?

  What makes the situation sub-optimal?
  Examples:
  
  I don't know how to get started with internationalizing my app.
  
  Bug 392 about printing was filed five years ago, and I don't even know if printing still works.
  
  I want help from a C coder writing a Maildir patch for Alpine.
