+<p>If you have no idea where to start with your engagement with an Apache project 
+this is the page for you.</p>
+<h3 id="finding_the_right_project">Finding the right project</h3>
+<p>The key to working on projects at Apache (and any open source for that matter)
+is to have a personal reason for being involved. You might be trying to solve 
+a day job issue, you might be looking to learn a new technology or you might 
+simply want to do something fun in your free time. We don't care what your 
+motivation is we just care about you wanting to get involved.</p>
+<p>If you don't have a specific technical issue to solve you might be willing to 
+work on any project. Our <a href="http://projects.apache.org/">projects page</a> provides a useful index which 
+allows you to view projects alphabetically, by category or by language. When you view a projects detail page in this list you will find details of their 
+mailing lists, issue tracker and other resources.</p>
+<p>As well as our main projects you might also like to view our 
+<a href="http://incubator.apache.org/">Incubating projects</a>. These projects work in exactly the same way as our "top
+level projects" but are still developing their initial community.</p>
+<p>Once you've found some interesting looking projects join their mailing lists and
+start "lurking". Read the mails that come through the list. Initially you will not
+understand what people are talking about, but over time you will start to
+pick up the language, objectives, strategies and working patterns of the community.</p>
+<h4 id="finding_an_issue_to_work_on">Finding an issue to work on</h4>
+<p>If you are trying to satisfy a specific technical problem then you already know
+what you want to work on, but if you are looking for something useful to do in
+order to participate in an ASF project then the projects issue/bug tracker is your 
+friend (this will be linked from the projects home page or from its entry on the
+projects page linked above).</p>
+<p>In the projects issue tracker you will find details of bugs and feature 
+requests the project would like to work with, this should give you some 
+inspiration about how you might be able to help the project community. If
+you are looking for a beginner level issue try searching JIRA for issues 
+with the label "GSoC" or "mentor", these are issues the community feel are 
+manageable for someone new to the ASF and their project. The community has
+also indicated that they are willing to help someone work on those issues
+through our <a href="/newbiefaq.html#NewbieFAQ-AbouttheApacheMentoringProgramme">mentoring program</a>.</p>
+<h2 id="joining_the_community">Joining the community</h2>
+<p>once you have identified an issue you would like to tackle its time to join the 
+projects mailing list (if you haven't already) and get started.</p>
+<p>Remember, community members usually happy to help, but they have to get something
+in return. The community needs to believe that you intend to contribute positively
+to their work. There is a limit to how much "hand holding" you will get so be ready
+to do some work if you expect to continue to be helped in your first foray into
+open source.</p>
+<p>At this point you might want to request that someone in the community offers to
+mentor you. See our <a href="/mentorprogrammeapplication.html">mentoring programme</a> for guidance on how to do this.</p>
+<p>Alternatively you can dive straight in and work with the community. Since you've 
+been lurking on the lists for a while by the time you have got to this point you
+should have a feel for how to get involved, so go for it.</p>
