While the specific details may look different from one project +to another, the rungs of the ladder look mostly the same. + +* [User](#user) +* [Contributor](#contributor) +* [Committer](#committer) +* [PMC Member](#pmc-member) +* [ASF Member](#asf-member) +* [Officers of the Foundation](#officers-of-the-foundation) +* [Board of Directors](#board-of-directors) + +## User + +Everything that we do in an ASF project is for the user. As a user of an +Apache project, your responsibilities are just to enjoy the software. + +We encourage you to join the user mailing list to ask questions, and +make suggestions. Members of the project are there to help out when you +run into problems. You can find this list (or lists) by looking under the +project name on [lists.apache.org](https://lists.apache.org). + +As a user, you're expected to abide by the project's [code of +conduct](https://www.apache.org/foundation/policies/conduct), so that +interactions are polite, friendly, and helpful. + +As you become a power user of the project, you may consider becoming a +contributor. + +## Contributor + +While most people think of open source contributors as being coders, +there are a wider variety of ways that you can contribute to a project. + +Most users' first contribution will be to open a ticket on the project's +issue tracker, or to answer a less experienced user's questions. These +actions help shape the future direction of the project, and are +important contributions. + +We encourage you to join the project's developer mailing list at this +time, to engage with the dicussions about the direction that the project +is taking. You can find this list (or lists) by looking under the +project name on [lists.apache.org](https://lists.apache.org). + +Other contributions may include design, promotion, documentation +improvements, events, and may other things. + +[See more about being a contributor](/contributors). + +As you become more involved with contributint to the project, you may +want to work towards [becoming a +committer](/contribotirs/becomingacommitter).
