How to start?

[Moritz Ulrich]

Hello,

I'm a student, I have some experience in programming with different
languages, and I want to help the Adium team.
I have a working environment, can compile Adium and I'm ready to start.

My problem is: I don't know where to start. There are so much tickets
on trac which all looks very complicated. I can't find a good starting
point.

I'm also asking me how other developers here develop for Adium. Do you
have two versions of Adium running or do you run your current
development-build? How can I bring the developer-build to start with a
different profile than my stable build?

I hope someone can give me a few pointers, and I hope I can help Adium
in the future.

Best regards,
Moritz Ulrich
