Comment 7 for bug 579338

another way to get more volunteers involved would be to explicitly ask for involvement via the welcome/about/help dialogs, there could be some statement saying:

"C Programmers Needed: We are looking for volunteers to help us improve GNUSim8085, if you know C and maybe even Gtk, feel free to get in touch with us"

What I am trying to say is that the project needs to COMMUNICATE its need for contributors/volunteers - this should be reflected in both, the website AND the program itself.

But this in itself is not sufficient: there are already some contributors who sent in patches.

But these patches were not yet reviewed/discussed or committed - so this also needs fixing, either there need to be more active people with SVN privileges or a decentralized SCM system like git has to be used.
