OISF Community "Tasks"¶

If you are interested in helping out with Suricata development there is a lot you can do. Help us with testing, QA, reporting bugs, etc. If you are interested in helping us by providing code, great! You can create whatever code you like. Add features, speed improvements, cleanups, whatever. If you want to help but you're unsure about what to do, we have some tickets / tasks assigned to the "OISF Community" in our issue tracker. Feel free to pick one of those up.
