Re: Contribution to Octave as a PM

[Nir Krakauer]

Being myself on the verge of wanting to increasingly contribute to

octave as a developer, I think the idea of an organized and maintained
list of well defined tasks "for beginners" is a great idea. If someone
solves a task and it gets marked as 'solved by John Doe' on that
centralized list, the reward of seeing your name there as new
contributor should be enough as "symbolic bounty" and worth far more
than an actual money transfer which probably comes with a higher
organizational overhead.
