Hi, I've contributed a couple of Dancer2 plugins. The guys who maintain Dancer are very smart and have been very nice. It's a great project, highly focused on extensibility and compatibility, rather than an all-in-one environment as I perceive Mojo to be. Contributions are welcome, but the maintainers are all volunteers and busy. It's sometimes disheartening that your PR isn't reviewed, or if it is accepted, a new release doesn't happen for months, but that is the way of most OSS projects in general. IRC sucks, always has. There is the Master of Supercilious Tongue-lashings who sort of dominates the IRC channel, and besides him, usually very slow response there to questions/comments. I'd love to see more Dancer2 questions here.

Update: On reflection and reading your response I think I gave too negative of an impression about the Dancer project. In particular I neglected to mention that the Github issues queue for the Dancer2 repo is well-curated (by MrCromeDome), to the point that issues are tagged with Beginner suitable and Up for grabs, so that would be a good place to start looking for ways to chip in. There's also a good deal of discussion goes on among the devs in the issue comments (to echo Laurent_R's point about the benefits of threaded conversations).


The way forward always starts with a minimal test.
