Ah, you can contribute just by doing something for the project you're interested in. None of the development is centrally organized.

There's plenty of stuff to do. I can give you a bunch of hints if you're a kernel dev. :)



I'm not (yet?) a kernel dev; I haven't ever contributed to any OS project, but I'd like to start with the pinephone.


Bootlin has some very nice introductory training materials online:

https://bootlin.com/doc/training/linux-kernel/ https://bootlin.com/docs/

Allwinner SoC used in PinePhone has a longstanding community around it organized around http://linux-sunxi.org/ There are a lot of materials, including datasheets there, etc.

https://wiki.pine64.org/index.php/PinePhone wiki also has a lot of information.

#pinedev at freenode is where the kernel development discussion happens, so feel free to join there.
