    v7 v8  
    1 This is a list of tasks that the Channels project needs doing that comes under the remit of Django's MOSS grant; anything on this page is eligible for funding via the grant with '''pre-approval''' from the Django MOSS committee; you'll get in touch with the committee, discuss the work and your history with open-source contribution (we strongly prefer that you have a proven track record on at least a few things) and the amount you'd like to be paid.
     1For information about contributing to Channels and getting paid, please see the Channels contribution documentation at http://channels.readthedocs.io/en/latest/contributing.html
    22
    3 If you're interested in working on one of these tasks, get in touch with Andrew Godwin <andrew@aeracode.org> as a first point of contact; he can help talk you through what's involved, and help judge/refine your proposal before it goes to the committee.
     3The list of tasks that was previously here has now been merged into the GitHub issues for the relevant package, so all eligible work is in one place; you can see them at:
    44
    5 Tasks not on the list can also be proposed; Andrew can help talk about them and if they would be sensible to do. Any work on Django, Daphne, asgiref or asgi_redis is eligible.
