[00:17] <klayklogg> Hey guys, any advice for good bugs to start on? BgK helped me off to a good start on ResidualVM, and I have a good grasp of C++, OOP, computer graphics blah blah blah, but I don't quite know where to start with the mammoth codebase. Ideas?

[22:55] <criezy> Since a recurrent question is here is "where to start with the mammoth codebase" I have taken a stab at adding something to the wiki:
[22:55] <criezy> http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Developer_Central#Help.21_Where_do_I_start_with_the_code_base.3F
[22:56] <criezy> Any addition or correction is welcome.
[22:57] <criezy> Some content in there is from suggestions made on IRC by dreammaster, snover, bgK and myself (and uzumaki in the role of the new contributor) on February 1 and 2 (see the log for the discussions).
[23:02] <snover> criezy: thank you for working on that, ive also noticed those same questions and think this is a good thing to do. i think it would also be good for the gsoc mentors to mark some bugs in the issue tracker as good first bugs, since that is also the most common question from a gsoc applicant and is important since the rules require them to make a fix.
[23:02] <snover> then there can just be a link to a report for bugs with that keyword.

[23:27] <criezy> Yes, that would be good. I will go over the bugs to try to identify some bugs and feature request that might be good candidates.
[23:27] <criezy> And also enter some feature requests that are currently getting forgotten on sheets of paper on my desk.
[23:27] <criezy> And I was also thinking that the unimplemented features on http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Advanced_Engine_Features could provide some tasks.
[23:33] <snover> well, be careful to not overwhelm people with too much stuff :)
