Hi,

I sent an email to ssiadmin asking them to add me as a contributor to  
IronRuby but haven’t heard a peep out of them. What’s the usual turn  
around for emails sent to them?

Sidenote: I asked to be confirmed on this email address  
(removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid[mailto:removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid) and  
removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid).

Usually its immediately. Jim gets notifications of contributor agreement  
requests, so maybe he knows more.

Do you already have some part of ironruby in mind to work on?

I hadnâ€™t realized the MSFT employment agreement would count so thatâ€™s  
good â˜º.

Iâ€™ve been taking Tomasâ€™s suggestion and working my way through  
Kernel#test flag implementations. Iâ€™m interested on the whole in the DLR  
and IronRuby though. Iâ€™d like someday to move that way within the  
company. Iâ€™m fairly close already, working in Runtime Experience in  
Windows so I get a fair amount of interaction with DevDiv as it is.

Anyway back the point at hand, Iâ€™d just like to improve things like  
Kernel#test. Not looking for any high profile work yet, trying to get my  
feet wet â˜º.

I forgot to mention that I prefer to go where â€œthe help is most needed.â€  
So if you guys have areas of particular interest that are lacking, Iâ€™d  
be interested in those once Iâ€™ve made my way through the rest of the  
Kernel#test stuff.

Cool. That would be the OpenSSL library that I mentioned â˜º.

Thanks!
