Maven Contributors

Hi all,

thanks to JCrete I've been able to spread the word about the  
Maven-situation (#users versus #committers and their time).
This resulted in a couple of sessions trying to fix several open issues  
for shared-utils + JXR  which should be easy to fix and which should make  
everybody better understand the open source contribution process.

One of the suggestions they had was a list of (probably) easy-to-fix  
issues,
either labeled in Jira or some top X on some page. Or we need to rate  
every (new) issue between easy and hard. This will require some extra time  
to set up, but should pay itself back in the end and might lead to new  
committers.

WDYT?

Robert

I've created https://s.apache.org/for-the-grabs_maven

If you think some issue is quite easy to solve, just add the label  
for-the-grabs

thanks,

No problem...that's ok...I just misunderstood that fixes for the same 
JIRA's comming from different people...

You could have wrote an email on dev list to warn a little 
bit...;-)..but on the other hand this is real life...

There are no slides. I hosted a session about contribution to open source  
projects / Maven.
Here we came up with the idea to use the Friday morning to guide everybody  
to the whole process with a real example.
I had no time to find enough different "easy" issues, so I gave everybody  
the same, just to understand the process.

for shared-utils had been several PR's..which are already in 
master...than this might be based on your trigger...great...

for JXR there had been also PR's...which are done...great too...
