<p>Both projects' respective mailing lists have a fair few helpful and knowledgeable people:</p>

<p>Geany also has an IRC channel (#geany on FreeNode) that often has one or two developers in it, depending on the timezone.</p>
<p>Also it's probably useful to look at various other such endeavors to see where to edit Geany's code:</p>
