The ZeroMQ community is incredibly supportive towards newcomers and existing members alike. And ofcourse the people of the community are really smart, because you dont build a scalable and lightweight (and popular) messaging framework unless you are smart.

I have pitched in with a few (simple) commits once in a while and am looking to contribute more regularly.

Here's all the code: http://github.com/zeromq/

And a very comprehensive guide: http://zguide.zeromq.org/page:all

And, the contribution process followed is known as C4: http://rfc.zeromq.org/spec:22

You can get in touch via IRC, which is #zeromq on irc.freenode.net ; Try to linger around after asking your questions, and someone would eventually respond.

You may also send in your queries to the ZeroMQ mailing list. (http://lists.zeromq.org/mailman/listinfo/zeromq-dev)

Some of us also hang out in the #zeromq channel in the Slack group for Golang: http://gophers.slack.com/
