Re: Volunteer for Docstring Compliance / updating source code

Hi Tom,

Welcome to the project!  It's actually pretty simple to get started, you
just need a GitHub account. You can then "fork" a copy of the
wxWidgets/Phoenix project into your own account, and "clone" that into a
local workspace on your computer(s). You can then make changes locally
in a branch, commit them when ready, and then push that branch to your
forked copy of the repository on GitHub. You can then make a PR (Pull
Request) which will add an item to the main project for review.  There
are some tutorials for this workflow online, this is a good one to start
with: https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo/

Once you get a local copy of the source tree and explore it a bit we can
give you some pointers to things that could use some attention, if you
don't find anything on your own.
