Finding your niche (Re: Want a Mentor)

Pawal, and other newcomers, Absolutely the best was to become a contributor is to begin by becoming a user of one or more projects! In time, you will find some shortcoming or missing feature that would make your work easier or make your life better. That's the 'ah hah' moment when you can dig in

Re: Want a Mentor

I'd suggest to look at https://projects.apache.org/projects.html?language (possibly the Java related projects list, or by ?category as you wish). I find it quite good at presenting each project with a description (short but indicative) and all needed links. Regards, Yann. On Thu, Jan 14, 2016 at

Re: Want a Mentor

Hi Suresh, I was just wondering if it might make sense for the Airavata community to convert the Swing-based apps to Apache Pivot instead of JavaFX (in the dogfood sense)?! I, for one, would be very interested in some cross-project collaboration inside the ASF along these lines. No press

Re: Want a Mentor

For students with JavaFX experience, in Apache Airavata projects we intend to have some GSOC projects on this topics. It will involve porting existing Java Swing based application to JavaFX. Hop by the dev list (d...@airavata.apache.org ). Ofcourse you want to s

Hi Roger, I have experience with Java Swing and JavaFX and this project looks very interesting. Can I help in the project as well? Thanks in advance and kind regards Chema 2016-01-14 21:37 GMT+01:00 Roger Whitcomb : > Hi Kapil, > I just wanted to reach out to see if you might be intereste

You can try to search JIRA for interesting tasks here is the example query of all currently opened GSOC tasks: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-704?jql=status%20%3D%20Open%20AND%20labels%20%3D%20mentor On Fri, Jan 15, 2016 at 12:53 PM, Paweł Kłos wrote: > Hi, > > Definitely I agre

Re: Want a Mentor

Hi, Definitely I agree with Jain. I'm a newcomer also. Up to this moment I was silently crawling Apache project searching for a project I could take a part of. Only added value is that I found many interesting Apache projects that I'll use at work, but still don't know how to (in practice) con

Re: Want a Mentor

Well, it would be a full-time job for _every_ project to go and list the help they need. We have what - "just" a couple hundreds of the projects? Or and there's "How to Contribute" page on virtually all of them. If you aren't sure what project you want to join or how to contribute to one you alread

Re: Want a Mentor

Hi Kapil, I just wanted to reach out to see if you might be interested in the Apache Pivot project (http://pivot.apache.org)? This is written in Java, and is an alternative to Java Swing, JavaFX and/or SWT as a way to build rich Java GUI applications. We (as the Pivot PMC) haven't real

Re: Want a Mentor

No problem Patricia. Yes, it would be very helpful if Apache can have a help wanted page, with needs and required skills and may be complexity of theissue. It will be very helpful for any newcomer. I have spent 1-2 hrs today going thru almost all incubate projects, still no luck with finding a way

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

Yes, at a high level - however its providing details about version controlling. feedback/ bugs reporting etc. I'm looking for a suitable project for me I can start understanding it and then contributing to it. On Thu, Jan 14, 2016 at 3:11 PM, Patricia Shanahan wrote: > Have you read http://www.

Welcome. Please see details of the process at http://community.apache.org/mentoringprogramme.html It should be noted that 95% of the work is on your side. Success in open source is about self motivation and self management. The other 5% is about asking for help when you hit a barrier. The abov
