Hi Nishant,

First of all thank you for your interest in ECF. I think it is better to spend some time around the project before moving on to bugs. You can always deliver your help on them later. 

Please refer [1]. It contains Scott's idea on getting started in ECF. Adding to that, my opinion is to first try out the platform as a user and get and idea of it. For that you can follow these [2], [3], [4] tutorials by Scott. Go through them and feel free to ask anything.

Sir/Ma'am

I am an intermediate C++ and java  programmer . I want to start contributing to ECF .. I have read the bugs marked "helpwanted" on the page given in [1] but i didn't get much clue ..

Can you please help me get started with the tech requirements for working with ECF ? I have been using java for a year know and have pretty decent knowledge about concepts like classes , exceptions , debugging etc..

How should i get started and what exactly should i read on to get onto contributing ?
