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.

If you're interested in working on one of these tasks, get in touch with Andrew Godwin <andrew@…> 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.
