<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>Every volunteer project obtains its strength from the people
involved in it. We invite you to participate as much or as little
as you choose. The roles and responsibilities that people can
assume in the project are based on merit. Everybody's input
matters!</p>
<p>There are a variety of ways to participate. Regardless of how
you choose to participate, we suggest you join some or all of our
<a href="mail-lists.html">mailing lists</a>.</p>
<h2><b>Use the Products and Give Us Feedback</b></h2>
<p>Using the products, reporting bugs, making feature requests,
etc. is by far the most important role. It's your feedback that
allows the technology to evolve.</p>
