I currently maintain kde.org/getinvolved and hear about people that are having trouble getting KDE set up. I will attempt to edit this page in the following way: I will add a graphic up front that describes the different choices a user has. Then, I will attempt to move some of the detailed links on this page (eg setting up with git) down into another related page (eg setting up with svn) so that this is focused on getting a user to quickly make a decision on the path they want and get started.

		+	== Concerns with your contributions at Getting Started ==
		+	While it is great that you are editing this wiki, I really do not feel the edits you have made to this article aid new contributors.
		+
		+	Looking at the after/before edits (respectively):
		+	http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started
		+	http://techbase.kde.org/index.php?title=Getting_Started&oldid=43418
		+
		+	The latter definitely seems more cleanly organized and easier for a beginning contributor to disect. Keep in mind that the people we are attempting to target, will almost definitely be unsure of their abilities, unsure of whether working on KDE is easy, or even possible. It is best to not throw a ton of information their way all at once. It needs to be easy for them to digest...Not only that, there are a ton of dead links everywhere..so the visitor really gets the impression that we are..lacking, I suppose.
		+
		+	Personally, I like the old-style one that I listed, more. While it wasn't perfect, it was simple and somewhat concise. And the banner-like objects helped break it down, and looked attractive while doing so. Then from there, the user was led to a series of more technical articles(although I think it was pretty much one big one after that..the separation is still very important. although, even in the older versions, there is of course still room for improvement).
		+
		+	I am planning on reverting your changes, either by a full revert, or by a manual bit-by-bit one...depending on how much information was gained/lost between the versions. This is if I don't hear a response from you in some random amount of time...

 I have filed bugs for bugzilla at mozilla regarding micropayment integration, and I tend to prefer Mantis as a bug/feature tracker.  I also very much think that searching for existing bugs should go thru closed bugs and not just open bugs.

-Aaron has enjoyed using applications made in KDE and QT for quite some time, and has posted bugs, which in general are viewed as controversial and then later accepted as being a real bug.   He would like to be considered a usability contributer and is attempting to set up a build environment to actually fix some of the behavior he cares deeply about.
