-<p>The key to working on projects at Apache (and any open source project, 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.
-The key is that you must <em>want</em> to get involved. It is also important that
-you have appropriate skills to be able to help the project.</p>
-<p>Our <a href="https://projects.apache.org/">projects page</a> provides a list of projects that you can sort alphabetically, by category or by language. When you view a project’s details
-page you can find out about its mailing lists, issue tracker and other resources.</p>
-<p>In the project’s issue tracker you will find details of bugs and feature
-requests the project would like help with. This should give you some
-inspiration about how you might be able to help the project community. If
-you see an issue you would like to tackle, it’s time to join the project’s
-mailing list and get started.</p>
