And meet new friends all over the world! The Joomla Volunteers Portal is a great place to get started. Create a profile and register as a Joomler, then browse the teams, read some reports and see if there is a place to join in the fun.
The Joomla! project is an all volunteer organisation. That is what sets us apart from other large Open Source projects. By volunteering, you join a large, international and diverse group of passionate individuals, looking to empower people and companies to connect, communicate, and be competitive on the world wide web.
