+    Vidalia is always looking for volunteers that want to help in development.
+    To start you should first take a look at the
+    <a href="https://www.torproject.org/getinvolved/volunteer.html.en"> volunteer
+    page</a> and see if there is something that interests you the most.
+
+    Vidalia's source code can be found in the SVN repository. The checkout URL
+    is: http://svn.torproject.org/vidalia. You should get to know how Vidalia
+    works internally in order to work with it. To do this you should know C++
+    and Qt.
+    </p>
+
+    <p>
+    If you intend to start coding already, please read and follow the
+    <a href="https://svn.torproject.org/vidalia/vidalia/trunk/HACKING">HACKING
+    guide</a>.
+    If you have a patch for a feature or a bug fix, first check the
+    <a href="https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/report/27">tickets that
+    are already submitted</a>, if there isn't a suited one for your patch, you
+    can submit a <a href="https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/newticket">new ticket</a>
+    selecting Vidalia as its Component.
+    </p>
+
+    <p>
+    Every project member inside Tor mostly uses IRC to communicate. Vidalia is
+    being developed currently by Matt Edman and Tomas Touceda. You can find
+    them in #vidalia channel at OFTC under the nicks edmanm and chiiph,
+    repectively. You should get in touch in order to see what's everyone working
+    on and to share what you've been working on or what you want to do. If you
+    intend to join the team, it's expected you stay around IRC, either in Vidalia's
+    channel, or #tor-dev.
