      Grab the latest code with git, and take it for a spin. Join our mailing list and write in with any ideas you have, your interests, and just to say hi and that you're interested.

      Testing!

      Grab the bleeding edge with git, and see if you can find any glitches on your system/files.

      Ask your distro to ship our latest version

      We would love help getting at least version 2.3.1 into as many distributions as possible. This version has native PulseAudio support which is critical to cmus working well on most popular Linux distributions.

      This can be as easy as figuring out who is the package maintainer and contacting them to tell them about the new version, and that it fixes the stability issues with PulseAudio.

      • Tip:

        Discuss documentation, testing, webmastering, and/or publicity.

        Include URLs if relevant (we'll automatically linkify them).

      • Example:

        We need people to download version 0.4.5 and make sure the frobulator still frobulates correctly.

  • Q: What's a good bug for a newcomer to tackle?

    • [X]
      • 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 cmus that you've been putting off, neglecting, or just plain avoiding?
