Hi Eli, I was fairly interested in the following:
1. write new unit tests based on code coverage - The link seems broken to me so I couldn't read up 2. create a distributed JUnit runner on top of Hadoop - I need to read up some more about this, but this looks really interesting. I was thinking about a project that will have one of the following deliverable set: Take project 2 and also deliver newbie bug fix every other week in common. Take project 1 deliver newbie fix every week or moderate bug every other week(e.g. Week 1: newbie bug fix, week 2: same, week 3/4: Moderate bug fix). I'm trying to think of achievable goals and still have some quality contribution, so it sounds right to take a package of things and have them down instead of one specific big project. This will also allow me to get to know the project from different aspects. This is a main objective for me. What do you guys think? Any optional mentors out there? Quick question came to mind while reading up some documents, do you have access to something fancier than home PC in order to run tests? Is this even required?
