Hi Brett,

Thank you for your reply.
I'll contact gcc@gcc.gnu.org accordingly.

I understand you're a non-profit. I'd like
to understand more about ways to contribute.
For example, how can we contribute to
the release of FSF 3.3?

Would you give me a few pointers?

Regards,
Ed

Dear Edward,

I am very sorry for the late response to this message.  Since we are a
non-profit with very limited resources, messages to this address often get
backlogged, and we are always struggling to catch up.

I have forwarded your mail to the GCC team, at <gcc@gcc.gnu.org>; they
maintain that page and can answer questions about GCC's development.  If
you have other questions about GCC's development, they can be directed
there as well.

Best regards,

Hi Edward,

I noticed that apparently nobody has replied to this yet?

If you are planning to contribute code or documentation to fix outstanding
bugs: http://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html and
      http://gcc.gnu.org/gnats.html (which has a list of bugs, where for
      the release we are mostly concerned about "high priority" bugs)

If you want to help with testing, there are some general notes at
      http://gcc.gnu.org/testing/
and release criteria at
      http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-3.3/criteria.html
(though historically these have been ignored somewhat, unfortunately).

In general, all kinds of patches or notes on documentation (including
the web pages) for the release.

Gerald
