Thanx Mingliang Liu, Considering the traffic around private@ for new accounts(surprisingly), I went ahead and updated our Contribution Guidelines[1], If anyone feels I made a mistake in the content or it can rephrased in a better way, feel free to change it or let me know.
In future if the traffic increases with such requests, we can obviously come back here and discuss the 2nd option or any other possible options. Thanx Everyone!!! -Ayush [1] https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/HADOOP/How+To+Contribute#HowToContribute-RequestingforaJiraaccount On Fri, 25 Nov 2022 at 06:16, Mingliang Liu <lium...@gmail.com> wrote: > Thanks Ayush for taking care of this.
