I woule like to state that everything anybody needs to contribute is publically avaliable. The fact of the matter is that nobody has posted anything in a long time. You dont become a dev and then contribute, you are granted development rights because you have proven that you can contribute to the project.
There isnt any documentation, but to be honest, if you cannot just sit down and find your way through the code, then working on eqemu is prolly not for you. Theres over 170000 lines of code in this project, and nobody has time to explain it. At the same time, the wiki is each person's opportunity to share with others anything they learn while working in the code. It is a self-driven project, and always will be. People who show initiative on their own are the people who will get time out of the devs for help. When I got here, there was no live compat login server, so I wrote a login server before I even had a forum or irc account. I completely rewrote tradeskills and posted the patch without ever talking to a developer. That is initiative.
gottasummer, I encourage you to try to help. The advice I give to anybody wanting to help is to pick an issue on the wiki issue list, and try to fix it.
Finally, If you dont like the way this project is administered, take the source and do your own thing, but dont keep it locked up like so many others have.
