10## What Needs Work
11
12Look at the Chromium bug tracker for open Linux issues:
13http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/list?can=2&q=os%3Alinux
14
andybonsad92aa32015-08-31 02:27:4415Issues marked "Available" are ready for someone to claim. To claim an issue, add
16a comment and then a project member will mark it "Assigned". If none of the
17"Available" issues seem appropriate, you may be able to help an already claimed
18("Assigned" or "Started") issue, but you'll probably want to coordinate with the
19claimants, to avoid unnecessary duplication of effort.

21Issues marked with HelpWanted are a good place to start.

24
andybonsad92aa32015-08-31 02:27:4425If you think you have discovered a new Linux bug, start by
26[searching for similar issues](http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/list?can=1&q=Linux).
27When you search, make sure you choose the "All Issues" option, since your bug
28might have already been fixed, but the default search only looks for open
29issues. If you can't find a related bug, please create a
30[New Issue](https://crbug.com/new). Use the linux defect template.
