+Work on items from the TODO list
+--------------------------------
+
+If you want to contribute to Buildroot but don't know where to start,
+and you don't like any of the above topics, you can always work on items
+from the http://elinux.org/Buildroot#Todo_list[Buildroot TODO list].
+Don't hesitate to discuss an item first on the mailing list or on IRC.
+Do edit the wiki to indicate when you start working on an item, so we
+avoid duplicate efforts.
