Fewer number of minor/trivial issues
Hi Experts,
I have just been checking the Beam issue tracker but could not find lot of
minor/trivial tasks. Also many of the existing minor tasks are quite old.
These tasks are very helpful for newbie contributions and it would be great
to see some minor tasks (or a newbie label), and would serve as good
starting points for fresh contributors.
Thoughts ?
Best Regards,
Yash

For the "older" JIRA issues that you might be interested in, I'd suggest
just to comment there. The original reporter or the component lead can
easily verify it is still valid and assign it to you.
With that, Yash, welcome! We look forward to your contributions to the
project.

Hi Ken,
"starter" is fine too. We just have to "document" in the contrib guide ;)

We do already have a couple of issues labeled as "starter" for just this
purpose. I don't care much about the actual name; there are different words
people think of ("easy-win", "starter", "newbie", "low-hanging-fruit") so
probably it would be useful to have a good Jira search linked from the
contribution guide.

Re: Fewer number of minor/trivial issues

I'm working on integrating FindBugs static analysis into our build, which
has uncovered a long list of outstanding issues. (JIRA
<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-176>, pull request
<https://github.com/apache/incubator-beam/pull/357>). Once integrated, I'd
like to triage the baseline issues which will be a great source of
low-hanging-fruit bugs.

Great to know someone's on top of it already.
We should encourage creating /marking minor tasks which would give new
contributors opportunity to break the ice.
Another place could be test cases for certain modules which will also
provide knowledge of code flow.

Hi Yash,
During ApacheCon, I discussed with Davor to create a Jira tag: "low
hanging fruit" ;)
I did such tag in other Apache projects to encourage contribution.
I see some potential Jira on this kind, especially documentation and
examples.

JB
