Hey everyone,
I was wondering how can I contribute to a project, I can currently work around 10-15 hrs/week.
I wanted to post in general type of forum but didn't find one (so choosing one with most activity) and maybe I should have searched before posting, however mostly wanted all opinions.

Anyways so yea let me know if I can somehow contribute to a project.
And if anyone is interested the way I code:

Hi Pratik,

Welcome to the community. Good to hear that you are interested in contributing to a project. There are lot's of things to be done all over the place, so my suggestion is that you find a project that you think sound interesting. A good start is to just download the project, do some simulation so you get a bit familiar with the code base, and start looking at the bug-tracker to see if there are any things there that can be fixed.

Good luck!

Hi protik

Welcome to the OpenRISC project. Ruben Diez has been doing a lot of work trying to improve the regression testing of OpenRISC. We have a regression test suite for the architectural simulator, and the goal is to make that work just as well with simulations of the actual Verilog. You might like to take a look at that work.

The development work tends to be discussed more on the mailing lists (confusingly there is one from opencores.org and one from openrisc.net, which overlap, so everyone cross-posts). See http://opencores.org/or1k/OR1K:Community_Portal#Mailing_lists_on_opencores.org.

Best wishes,

Jeremy
