Documentation for Contributing to Gora

[Furkan KAMACI <fu...@gmail.com>]

Hi All,

I think that we should create a page:

* Contributing to Gora

at wiki. It may contain:

* How to build Gora
* How to contribute to source code
* Code Style (I learned that Gora uses Nutch code style)
* Contributing to documentation
* Release Procedure (for commiters)
* ...

Me and other people, who may contribute to Apache Gora via GSoC (if they
are accepted), can easily help to contribute wiki for such kind of things.
Because during that process these steps will be applied and tested step by
step.

Kind Regards,
Furkan KAMACI
