Definitely DW hacking, ultimately. Specifically, I'm just starting to branch out from just style things to bugs that involve more backend, ie programming in Perl as well as S2.
My intermediate goal is to be familiar enough with Perl and programming in general that I can come up with the right search terms to help me fix problems on my own. And if I can't, the right terminology to ask question in IRC that don't take half an hour of debugging my question before people can help me!
Experience: I'm quite good at S2 and reasonably know my way around the styles-related DW codebase. I'm ok with Git and Bash, though still a beginner. I have reasonable HTML and CSS, if I could stand to improve. I don't really have any real programming languages, but I have a reasonable grasp of the general concepts of programming because I used to code quite a lot when I was a kid in the 80s. Things have moved on a lot since then!
