Each team has a different archive for it's codebase, but many of the team
pages don't mention this yet.  Until they are all updated, ask on the list
or as the team administrators.  I'll also update the CVS doc and FAQ to
reflect this.

Great!  We can use help everywhere :)

Well, the developer quickstart attempts to answer this but it's still
missing a good deal because of the ra[pid growth of the project recently.
Let me know any particular things that it's missing or lacking information
on and you think should be added and I'll fix it up.

Otherwise, just pick a team (http://jabber.org/developers/teams.jab), join
it and jump on it's dev list, and start asking questions :)
