Get involved in now so actively in the improvement of Skolelinux by adding errors and desires that stand you in our central reporting system! We promise you: the knowledge that can earn you the process of transfer to almost all other free software projects? You can also install the Debian package 'bugzilla' on your school server to centrally manage internal network problems.

To help you make a start as easily as possible, we will show you the following first steps.

The allocation of components is not always clear. You still have no fear of making mistakes (of which lives in Bugzilla!), All allocations are dynamic and can be corrected later. Only the summary, title (Summary) and the description and more comments will remain static in the database.
