How can I contribute to the development of JacORB?
The most helpful things are code inspection, application development and bug reporting. This is an enourmous help in improving the stability of the software! Answering day-to-day quastions on the developer list also helps. Extending JacORB by developing code yourself, however, would be easiest for tasks that are totally independent of the ORB core and the IDL compiler, e.g. implementing new services such as the Notification Service. If people came up with new service implementations for JacORB, that would simply be great, especially as we do not plan to add to the list of services ourselves (the only exception being the Security Service). I am a little reluctant, however, to coordinate work in more central areas as I simply cannot afford to spend time on the integration of too many tightly interwoven ORB-level activities (yes, we do use CVS, and we do have a CVS server running). Help would be welcome in the areas of documentation and perhaps the development of a comprehensive test suit
