How do I access the sample source code for the Raspberry Pi and build the multimedia demo programs?
See [[Raspberry Pi Fedora Remix Multimedia Demo Programs]].
 
== How/where can I get help with the Remix? ==
 
See [[Raspberry_Pi_Fedora_Remix#Getting_Help Getting Help]].
 
== How can I get involved? ==
 
=== Getting involved in the Fedora ARM project ===
 
We'd love to have your help! See http://join.fedoraproject.org and the mailing lists and IRC channels listed under [[Raspberry_Pi_Fedora_Remix#Getting_Help Getting Help]].
 
=== Developers needed ===
 
There is one area that stands out as needing particular attention: making the multimedia capabilities of the Raspberry Pi accessible through standard interfaces, particularly:
* audio (on HDMI and analog outputs) via PulseAudio/ALSA
* GPU access via X11 (accelerated X)
* OpenGL via glx
 
If you are an audio/X/GL developer and can help out in these area, please jump in! We need to expose the Raspberry Pi's hardware capabilities via standard interfaces as early in the Raspberry Pi ecosystem growth cycle as possible to avoid excessive forking of projects to create versions locked to the (current) Raspberry Pi implementation -- which is not scalable in the long run.
