[Mono-dev] I would like to contribute to mono however it seems things are in flux due to the integration of .NET Core and .NET Framework; where to start?

Huh.  I'm surprised nobody answered - 

If you haven't already, please be sure to see 
http://www.mono-project.com/community

And in particular
http://www.mono-project.com/community/contributing 

Amongst other things, the above tells you where the unit tests are, and bugzilla.

It's probably best to develop on mac or linux.  Personally I think, that since the latest ubuntu includes a recent-ish version of mono and monodevelop, that's the easiest way to get setup.  (But I loves me some sourcetree, so I prefer to work on the mac instead, despite a little more effort required to build.)

The source is on github.  Fork & pull request.

Discuss stuff on this mailing list first, so as to avoid wasted effort.  Thanks for offering to help.
