=== Example invitation mail ===

Hi {new member},

In this mail we will explain what has been done so far to add you to the development working group. In this mail you also will find all information to get started working in the development working group. I understand the amount of information can be overwhelming, but keep in mind you are part of a great team, that always is willing to help you. Because you enter a international team of developers, help is almost always available 24x7...don't hesitate to ask if things are unclear!

We have added you to the development working group. This means that there are certain areas that are now accessible for you, a short overview:
* The private area of the working group. You can see it under the development team. Here you find all personal details of current members and members that once were in the development working group. Privacy is a great asset of this team, use this information only for personal needs.
* Also check the sticky post describing the actual status of all team members.
* The [[http://groups.google.com/group/joomla-devel Developers mailinglist], used for discussions on development, asking help, putting in suggestions etc.
* Subversion commit access of the Joomla! trunk http://joomlacode.org/svn/joomla/development/trunk/ Keep in mind this is full access. Use it with care, especially in the early stages of you start. See also explanation below.
* Access to the tracker. You now can manage the tracker items.

Also read the development strategy document and the updated documentation on our wiki.

Have fun coding!
