Welcome to our humble community.

We don't have many todo items specific to C right now. Taking on
Epiphany [1] is a bit heavy for a beginner. :)  But learning the basics
of patching a package [2] is certainly useful in order to solve many of
our bugs [3].

Sorry about that. It's a short term measure against the increasing spam
we've been having [4]. I hope to enable account creation again in a few
days.
