The WordPress coreCore Core is the set of software required to run WordPress. The Core Development Team builds WordPress. development team builds WordPress! Follow this site for general updates, status reports, and the occasional code debate. There’s lots of ways to contribute:

Found a bugbug A bug is an error or unexpected result. Performance improvements, code optimization, and are considered enhancements, not defects. After feature freeze, only bugs are dealt with, with regressions (adverse changes from the previous version) being the highest priority.? Create a ticket in the bug tracker.
Want to contribute? Get started quickly with tickets marked as good first bugs for new contributors or join a bug scrub. There’s more on the reports page, like patches needing testing, and on feature projects page.
Other questions? Here is a detailed handbook for contributors, complete with tutorials.

Yeah, I did some cleaning up and testing. 🙂

It would help if they got committed or rejected with feedback faster, btw.

tracTrac An open source project by Edgewall Software that serves as a bug tracker and project management tool for WordPress. wouldn’t be so overcluttered with tickets if commit candidates got looked into on the spot. and contributors would have more incentive to maintain their patches. as things are, a valid ticketticket Created for both bug reports and feature development on the bug tracker. can easily be ignored for a year from lack of traction, and that is quite discouraging for contributors.

some oss projects (pgsql) have a bugbug A bug is an error or unexpected result. Performance improvements, code optimization, and are considered enhancements, not defects. After feature freeze, only bugs are dealt with, with regressions (adverse changes from the previous version) being the highest priority.-to-feedback process of under 48 hours. that helps *a lot* to get the community involved. especially, as is the case of pgsql, when it usually means bug-to-fix.

  We do try to respond as fast as possible. But responding is not a short task and good quality patchpatch A special text file that describes changes to code, by identifying the files and lines which are added, removed, and altered. It may also be referred to as a diff. A patch can be applied to a codebase for testing. review takes time.
  
  You have to make sure that the bugbug A bug is an error or unexpected result. Performance improvements, code optimization, and are considered enhancements, not defects. After feature freeze, only bugs are dealt with, with regressions (adverse changes from the previous version) being the highest priority. is being fixed in the correct way.
  
  Often lack of detail in the ticketticket Created for both bug reports and feature development on the bug tracker. will make this take longer
