Becoming involved in XO software development?

[Rebecca Janine Wise]

This is a general question. I work with various Non-Profits and have become
interested in developing for the XO. Can anyone recommend a path on how to
become involved in some aspect of the software development side of the XO. I
guess the main questions I have are:

a) Is there a formal process for becoming involved or do you sort of just
start contributing to the source for some part of the system an application?
b) What's the best way to get a feel for what's "in the box" so you can
figure out where you'd like (and be capable) of contributing?
c) Is the OLPC XO hardware (or a hardware emulator or something similar)
available to developers?
d) Are there any other questions I should be asking but haven't?

Thanks so much,
Rebecca
