Contribute to Piwik

Piwik is constantly growing and expanding (we love updates!), and as it has become more popular, we now need YOUR help to make Piwik better. The core team is still very small (and very busy) so we would love more people to join the fun and help realise our objectives for Piwik 1.0.

The good news is: there are many ways that you can help with Piwik, you don't necessarily have to be a programmer. If you have some time and good will, you can really help!
