Instructions on how to join a project

How do I join a project?

One of the project owners must use the project administration page to add your Google account email address to the project.

Most projects have mailing lists that the developers use to discuss the project. To become a developer, first participate on the mailing list by showing your interest in the project and your ability to help the project. Then, ask the project owners to make you a member of the project.

Please do not add comments to this wiki page asking for project membership. Only the project owner of the project that you want to join can add you to that project. This is the "support" project, which is a completely different project.

Project membership is not required to download. All the projects we host are open source, so anyone can check out source code and download releases without asking for permission. Non-members are also generally allowed to enter issues and to comment on wiki pages. Membership is only needed to contribute to the project by making source code commits or issue updates.

Do not post here! Read what is written above!

You're all requesting membership on a page that has nothing to do with any particular project.

It's a google help page.

Look at the URL: http://code.google.com/p/support/wiki/HowToJoinAProject

What can you do when the project owner requests email from people interested in joining but doesn't list it on the main project page or anywhere else?

canyonsullivan: add @gmail to the owner's user name, or click through to their profile and solve the CAPTCHA.

I attend yesterday's SIG seminar and would like to join the development efforts.
