Hello All, I would be interested in helping contribute to the nmap project, as it's given me years of faithful service. My primary languages are C and Perl, but I'm game to learn lua or anything else required. I'm not having a lot of luck finding information about contributing, code standards, style guides, etc, and was referred to the list by those in the IRC channel. Does the above mentioned documentation exist yet? If not, could someone possibly point me in the direction of a good "starter issue" to learn my way around the codebase a bit? I have perused the github issues, but there are a ton of them, so a bit of direction would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Peter
Hi Peter, I usually point people to a post I wrote one and a half year ago: http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2014/q1/2 Keep in mind that some things changed since then. If I recall correctly, the TODO file doesn't have the "Done" line anymore and some issues are now tracked on GitHub: https://github.com/nmap/nmap/issues There's also secwiki.org which covers some Nmap documentation, including "Script ideas" page: https://secwiki.org/w/Nmap/Script_Ideas Let us know more about what you would find most interesting and perhaps I could help you a bit. Cheers, d33tah
