Yes, I started to read the code, but it's not easy without documentation (I saw the existing, and it's really weak) and with almost no comment. But I didn't give up, and the good thing is : I can easily improve the code. I just have to add comments. And I can easily improve the whole software. I just have to write doc.

Is there anyone out there who has considered contributing to the MediaWiki PHP script, but decided it against for reasons such as:

* Don't know PHP/MySQL * Poor documentation, can't understand the code * Wouldn't know where to start * Don't have a test server * Don't have CVS/server access, and you find contributing otherwise to be tedious and frustrating

Or perhaps you've contributed on occasion but you're deterred from contributing again for reasons such as those above?

If so, please speak up! What areas could we improve to make it easier to contribute?

If you prefer, you can contact me privately at tstarlingphysicsunimelbeduau.
