Re: Want a Mentor

I'm sorry - I thought you had already selected Hadoop. I don't know any alternative to picking projects, browsing their developer lists, and seeing if anything interests you. Maybe Apache needs a "Help wanted" web page where projects can list their needs? On 1/14/2016 12:24 PM, Kapil Jain wr
