Just an addition... We are also looking for a few 2-3 bug testers... basicly you would be part of the team, but specialize in testing weekly builds... giving your feed back, any fixes you have, any changes, suggestions, etc.

what are the hardware needs for a tester spot?  Do you have to use a clam shell or does a 6000 work

I myself do not know how the SL-6000 is built... and I dont know if it can boot  using U-boot or not... I will have to check on that... but if it can be done... yes it would be great to have a dedicated 6000 tester... I check on that...

I just need my wifi working with the newest pdaxrom, and then will gladly join the team. I'm a developer in the normal life

Really can't do without cf wifi. That's why I'm currently on the only one working for me - beta 3.

Can contribute with bug fixes, development, and whatever else is needed.

This could be good news.  Is there a limit to the number of people working officially on the project?  

I'd really like to help if possible, I have a 6000 and a 3200, and I'm trying to figure out how to use pdaxrom-builder, but the wiki on oesf is pretty outdated, and the docs on pdaxrom.org are a little obtuse for me right now  

 Let me know what I can do if anything, otherwise, my apologies for clogging up the thread.
