New developers and people to help are always welcome, it's just a matter of expressing interest, and showing a little bit of technical saavy. I want to bridge the gap between the development efforts and the eqemu community.
I agree though, a normalized process is necessary, even though it may be a necessary evil..lol...
Currently , the development team is between 5-10 people, not all are actively involved at the moment, all of us have real lives so were here and there.
To become involved as an official developer, the best option is to come to IRC and talk to one of us (look for ops and halfops in #eqemu). Show us some of your code changes, what you'd like to do, etc., and we'll set something up. To me, the most important parts of making a good team aren't necessarily what you know, but what you are willing to learn, and attitude is 200% in my book.
Honestly, i'd like to see the developer channel opened to the public (under VERY STRICT GUIDELINES! If you spam, talk way off topic, or come in asking for troubleshooting help on logging into a server, you immediately get a kick/ban, thats what #eqemu is for).
