Have you introduced yourself to these guys? Sent any patches yet?
Discussed anything with anyone?

You should probably reach out to people who have organized conferences
and user groups before and ask for their experience - this is however
not a topic for the internals development list - and you don't need an
commit access to our repository to do so.

As for translating the docs.. It is a _huge_ task to create a new
translation and not something we recommend a one person to start
doing. You'll need a group of people to get started, which you should
probably coordinate with the local user group.

Dear all,

Greetings!

Hi Hannes,

Do you know the people who organizing international php conferences?

I can start translating the documentation and will be able to join local
people accordingly. How should I get started?

And also like to give my active contribution to maintain official bundled
extentions. How can I give my contribution to develp php and official
extensions?

Thank you and Best Regards.

Check it out with other UG, plenty of resources online about that.
However totally off topic on this list.

Introduce yourself to the php documentation team mailing list, see
http://www.php.net/mailing-lists.php to subscribe.

Open a bug or feature report request and attach your patch(es) or use
github to submit pull requests, easy :)
