Hi,

with one phobos PR accepted any a second one submitted, I feel it 
is about time I write a tutorial. No, seriously, I spend some 
time to get started. Others might have a rough time, too. So here 
is a draft of a contributor tutorial. Posix based.

All of it is taken from the wiki, of course.

Thanks for taking the time to put that together. By "it is taken from the Wiki" did you mean individual parts are taken from the wiki, or the whole thing? If you compiled a bunch of steps from the Wiki, perhaps you could add what you've done to the Wiki, might get more views there.

I got it together (to the extend that I did) using the wiki. The information is all there. Actually, the wiki contains a lot more and this is where it gets a little complicated. It is not that easy to create your first PR. Now, I am all for putting the thing in the wiki, posting it on all the right forms, extending and correcting it, as long as it is useful. Right now it is not to be taken too seriously.
