New to Hadoop

 
Hi All,
         My name is Ankur and I am new to Hadoop user
and developer community.  I have recently acquainted
Myself with the Map/Reduce programming paradigm and 
Hadoop as a platform for performing Map/Reduce computations
on large amounts of data.

As a part of my medium and long term plans I intent to
continuously use hadoop for executing my Map/Reduce jobs 
as well as make active contributions to Hadoop in the form 
of patches for existing bugs/features/enhancements that
exist is Hadoop JIRA.

Any recommendations/pointers for the right way of making
contributions thus would greatly appreciated.

Thanks and Regards
-Ankur
