My personal, non-official advice: take the time and go through the archives of this mailing list for the past 6 months or so. You'll find the answer to your question, and tons of information that will be very useful to you down the road (not least of which, you'll get a feel for how things are done around here). --Thilo > > Greetings, > Sasa. > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
