Yup, we're on the same page :)

Thanks for your interest, Jack.
Taking a read through the "design doc" and related discussion is a good
starting point. Re-linked here for your convenience [1]
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-20951 has a break-down of
work items. The first thing we need to work on is the WAL API. I know
that our Ted and Ankit have been digging through the current codebase to
get a starting point. I'd expect some initial "pseudocode" this week,
but this will be a long pole to get some agreed upon, I imagine.
You can also look at https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RATIS-271
which will likely be quicker to have code getting committed. A few of us
have been playing around with the code there already, and doing a
similar API "deep-dive" exercise.
And, if it doesn't go without saying, feel free to ask questions on the
mailing list here or in Slack. I'll do my best to answer them in a
timely fashion :)

Great work! I'm excited about this feature and want to help with
development. What do you guys suggest are the best topics to ramp up in
preparation for these upcoming sprints?
