You need to talk to someone with deeper knowledge, as I'm sure you could get some improvement. Your best bet is to try IRC - install konversation which sets up freenode as default server, then type in '/join #kde'. There are always devs online. You don't always get an immediate reply if people are busy, but usually you get one before long. One other thing - if someone does start a conversation with you, include their name in your reply - it attracts their attention. HTH Anne
