I've also recently started looking at the EQEmu code. From my understanding, unless there's a huge system being implemented like Lua scripting, developers here will individually code bug fixes/implementions as needed whenever they have the time to do so.

So if you spot a bug in the code, send in the fix via git. See something that needs refactoring? Create a pull request with the new design. Check out the EQEmu bugs section on Github and here on the forums, find something to fix, etc. Staying in the EQEmu developer's IRC channel is also probably a good idea.


I don't have any professional experience, but I have been a hobbyist for some time. Whenever I have time I try to help out however I can by answering common questions, reporting bugs, and helping with setting up servers. Anyways, I'm sure this community will find your skills useful.


Good luck!
