Get yourself a "pair programming partner" and take on a #curl issue? Sounds like an awesome take to me!

First-time contributor looking for a pair programming partner- anyone interested in tackling an issue together? · curl curl · Discussion #21587

Hi everyone, I recently decided I want to make my first contribution to an open source project, and curl caught my eye. That said, I quickly realised how much there is to understand under the hood ...

@bagder I am looking over #curl for a month now. And i realized one has to have good knowledge of operating systems, sockets, networking, protocols ...etc along with C.
For sure, someday i will make it, but i have a long way to go. Till then i am following you guys and joined the mailing list.

@somu01 yeah, there's quite a lot of ... details to figure out. Don't be shy to ask if there are specific things you can't work out on your own.

@bagder This is a marvellous idea! And more FOSS projects could take this approach! That way, their developer bases would grow even more!
