bla-bla there as well.

+<h1>Getting Started</h1>
+
+<p>
+Getting started at <em>coding</em>
+in KDE is a matter of finding something to fix, and fixing it.
+You may want to consult the module overview to
+help find what you are looking for; once you have
+fixed something, you will want to send in a patch.
+If you do that a few times, you may want
+to apply for an SVN account so you can fix things directly.
