Adam Harvey 53e9973cf9 An in-progress rewrite of the get involved section to be a set of pages.
Work so far:

* Split the (terrific) article bjori wrote out into a separate page.
* Move the notes for running the tests into a separate page and clean them up
  to be a bit easier to follow.

Plans:

* Write a rough step-by-step guide to submitting a pull request — we have
  information on the Wiki around merging a pull request, and information
  scattered across the site on using Git, but nothing that really pulls it
  together.

Ever wondered how the PHP.net project actually works and what it has to offer?
Who is in charge and how decisions are made? The PHP.net project has a lot of
things in the works and is always looking for new talent to join the project,
share new ideas, discuss improvements, fix broken features, look after the
websites, documentation, and so on and on...

<h1>Get Involved</h1>
<p>
There are many ways to be involved with PHP. Help is always needed and
appreciated, and you can help in many ways: from running our test suite and
sending in the results, through to sending a pull request for a new feature,
editing the PHP manual to better describe a feature, or through a myriad of
other methods.

Hannes Magnusson wrote an article in the August 2010 issue of
<a href="http://www.phparch.com/">php|architect</a> entitled
<a href="/get-involved/community-in-action.php">Community in Action</a>, which
describes the PHP community in detail and covers many ways you can contribute
to PHP. He has kindly made it available on the PHP.net site, and it's well
worth a read.

<p>
More detailed information on a couple of ways you can get involved can be
found below.

<h2>Run the Test Suite</h2>
<p>
<a href="/get-involved/run-the-tests.php">Running the test suite</a> helps the
PHP QA team to look for patterns of test failures and use those to track down
and fix bugs in PHP. Having a variety of people running the test suite on
different operating systems and architectures for alpha, beta, RC and stable
releases is a huge help in preventing and finding bugs and regressions.
