Err... this might be a late question, but I'm just supposed to change the explanation a little, right? How do I edit the page? Who do I contact?

Alright, thank you!

Well that's disheartening. So out of these that this site recommended, which ones would you suggest are actually doable for a newbie? https://github.com/opencv/opencv/issu...

Can I ask why OpenCV uses so many different markdown languages? Is it just because it's opensource and everyone likes to contribute with their favorite one?

Actually, I wound up here: http://docs.opencv.org . Do you know if this this page still in use?

Hello all,

This is my first time jumping into opensource, and wanted some advice on how to get started.

I thought I would start with the easy stuff, like helping out with documentation. But searching issues in the repo, I came across many open issues in which someone opened two years ago, but no one's been responding since. My question is: how can I tell which issues are actually still valid? I can easily see two-year-old code getting outdated and no longer worth documenting as opposed to newer issues. Also, if this issue is still indeed worth working on, who would I contact, since no one on the list seems to be responding?

Also, I seem to have some trouble navigating the site. For starters, when I visited http://docs.opencv.org/, the layout looked so different from the rest of the site that I thought I was in the wrong place. Is this page still in use? I do have some experience with making websites. Do you think I could help with making some of the of the pages look prettier? By the way, would someone mind explaining the different headers on that page? (Nightly, Doxygen HTML, Sphinx HTML, and Javadoc HTML?)

Thanks in advance!
