What is Diameter?

I don't mean to discourage anyone from volunteering - if you get a direct answer from someone else then great :) - but it would probably be easiest for you to begin just by asking questions of the mailing list, and perhaps formalizing a mentorship relationship later.  Most twisted core team members tend to be very busy, but the community as a whole does a pretty good job of keeping up with the questions here.  Personally I'd love to offer to mentor you, but I am fairly overloaded as it is and would not be able to give you the attention you deserve.

You might want to check this out as a resource to get started on the development process, just to close a few trivial bugs to get the hang of it before starting the larger project of Diameter support:

Please feel free to ask any and all questions on this list.
