Hello Sequoia developers,
I am interested in contributing to sequoia and wanted to check-in and say hello before diving in.
But let me introduce myself and say a few words about what brings me to sequoia.
I am a software developer by trade (full stack web) and free software enthusiast. I am passionate about digital privacy and security. I love the mission of p≡p.
I am a maintainer of the Exercism Rust track and am have a few years of Rust programming experience. I would like to contribute to a Rust project by solving practical problems in a domain Rust is well-suited for. Project Euler and Exercism are fun. But the world needs more quality crypto!
What do you expect from new contributors? What would you say are the project's current needs befitting a newcomer?
Thank you! Eli
Hi Eli,
Nice to see you!
Is there a specific area you'd like to work on?
If not there is label for good first tickets: https://gitlab.com/sequoia-pgp/sequoia/-/issues?scope=all&utf8=%E2%9C%93...
Some of them require more thought and discussion than others so if you're using IRC (or have access to an IRC gateway) be sure to join #sequoia on freenode where the majority of discussions are held.
From the legal point there is also: https://gitlab.com/sequoia-pgp/sequoia/-/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md
See you later!
Kind regards, Wiktor

Hi Wiktor!
I will have to familiarize myself with the project more. But I'm generally interested in learning applied cryptography, especially PKI implementations.
I have some experience writing CLIs in Rust so will likely start exploring those issues.
Thanks for linking to the CLA. I did sign it.
See you later too!
