Hi all,
just a small question:
How do I start contributing to a project? How I add my code?

That depends on the project. All Ohloh does with the sources is analyse them, Ohloh doesn't control the code repositories. You should visit the project's website, and see what tha project has to say about how to contribute.

Thx.
So how ohloh knows how much anyone contributed ?
I suppose it is tracked differently from project to project.

Ohloh checks the version control servers (CVS, SVN, etc) for the different projects regularly, and gets information from those servers about who committed what. Ohloh then analyses those changes to see how to attribute them. When you have an account on Ohloh, you can then claim your contributions by clicking the This is me button.
