| 12 | ## What Needs Work |
| 13 | |
| nodir | a6074d4c | 2015-09-01 04:26:45 | [diff] [blame] | 14 | Look at the Chromium bug tracker for |
| 15 | [open Linux issues](http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/list?can=2&q=os%3Alinux). |
| andybons | 3322f76 | 2015-08-24 21:37:09 | [diff] [blame] | 16 | |
| andybons | ad92aa3 | 2015-08-31 02:27:44 | [diff] [blame] | 17 | Issues marked "Available" are ready for someone to claim. To claim an issue, add |
| 18 | a comment and then a project member will mark it "Assigned". If none of the |
| 19 | "Available" issues seem appropriate, you may be able to help an already claimed |
| 20 | ("Assigned" or "Started") issue, but you'll probably want to coordinate with the |
| 21 | claimants, to avoid unnecessary duplication of effort. |
| andybons | 3322f76 | 2015-08-24 21:37:09 | [diff] [blame] | 22 | |
| 23 | Issues marked with HelpWanted are a good place to start. |

| 26 | |
| andybons | ad92aa3 | 2015-08-31 02:27:44 | [diff] [blame] | 27 | If you think you have discovered a new Linux bug, start by |
| 28 | [searching for similar issues](http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/list?can=1&q=Linux). |
| 29 | When you search, make sure you choose the "All Issues" option, since your bug |
| 30 | might have already been fixed, but the default search only looks for open |
| 31 | issues. If you can't find a related bug, please create a |
| 32 | [New Issue](https://crbug.com/new). Use the linux defect template. |
