Hello Feng,

Every effort to help in making FreeBSD better is most welcome.
Contributions can have many forms.  First of all, grab yourself a copy
of FreeBSD and install it after you carefully read the installation
instructions (you can find out about ways to get FreeBSD, by following
the link "Getting FreeBSD" at the left-sidebar of
http://www.FreeBSD.org/ -- it leads you to the FreeBSD handbook,
http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/mirrors.html).

- You can install FreeBSD and see how you like it.  Contructive
  comments on the way things work, are a valuable source of feedback,
  that the developers will be glad to hear.

- Start at http://www.FreeBSD.org/ [the home page of the FreeBSD
  project] and browse the documentation that is posted there.
  It should be helpful enough for a newcomer to FreeBSD, otherwise it
  is a bug in the documentation.

One of the articles that are available online, part of the FreeBSD
documentation set, is an article called "Contributing to FreeBSD".
You can find it at:
http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/contributing/

This article should give a few pointers that will get you started.

I hope this helps,
