Looking for mentoring.

[Samuel J. Greear]

Your best bet(s) are just jumping in and tackling projects on the projects
pages on the website or chasing bugs in the tracker and/or to visit the
#dragonflybsd irc channel on EFNet, many of the primary developers are
there -- we're happy to answer questions and provide direction.
