Need mentor
Hi all,
I just joined tomcat dev list. Can someone guide me on, how can I start
contributing ?
It would be helpful if I get any mentor, who can guide me through the
process and I can kick start.
Thanks and Regards,
Sumesh

I have looked at it an managed to contribute a little in the past.
I was unaware of the new link to the Beginner issues fitler though, so
that's a good addition. I will look into the ones that are currently
labeled as such.
It'd be great if some more issues will be marked as
Beginner/Intermediate though as many of us want to contribute.

Have you taken a look at the CONTRIBUTING guide in the repo?
https://github.com/apache/tomcat/blob/trunk/CONTRIBUTING.md If it's
insufficient, let us know and we can update it. Right now it only
suggests looking at Beginner bugs, so we definitely need to expand
that (there are only three bugs currently flagged as Beginner). I'll
keep an eye out for other suggestions and add them as we go along
since there seems to be a few requests for getting started material
open at the moment.

I would also like to be pointed at some development tasks if possible.

There are also further instructions in the README and CONTRIBUTING
documents in the source code repositories, easiest viewed on Github
(for trunk: https://github.com/apache/tomcat).

Thank you Mark for guiding. Once I complete first step (getting local
instance running) will ask for further help.

Welcome.

I can get you started. I'm sure everyone here will help point you in the
right direction if you get stuck.

First thing to do is to get a copy of the source code. You can use git
or svn. Details here:
http://tomcat.apache.org/svn.html
If you opt for git, I recommend working with the GitHub mirrors.
Once you have the source code, follow the instructions in BUILDING.txt
in the root directory to build a local Tomcat instance from source.
Once you built a local Tomcat instance and confirmed it is working, we
can point you towards some development tasks to get you started.
Any questions, just ask. I'm sure there are places where we could make
the documentation clearer.
Mark
