Hey Shubham, I'd highly recommend a couple of newbie bugs just to get familiarized ( https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%20KAFKA%20AND%20labels%20%3D%20%22newbie%22%20AND%20resolution%20%3D%20Unresolved%20ORDER%20BY%20key%20DESC )
After getting familiarized with the project (making contributions, getting familiar w/ the code base, etc) it'd make sense to discuss concrete projects. Between core Kafka, Connect, and Streams, there are probably a few projects that would fit the 6-7 month timeframe. (Personally, I'd also love to see more system test coverage for various features!) -Ewen On Wed, Jul 6, 2016 at 3:13 AM, shubham mulay <shubhammu...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello, > > We are a group of students that are currently pursuing our undergraduate > degree in Computer Science from Pune Institute of Computer > Technology(PICT), Maharashtra, India.
