Student looking to contribute

Hi,

My name is Alberto Torres and I am a 4th year computer science student. I am looking to contribute to an open source project as part of my school semester. I currently work in and have 1 year experience in IT support for a Charter School Organization. I don’t have much programming experience but I am hoping to be able to contribute in other ways a few hours a week for the next month. I look forward to getting involved! 


Best regards,

Alberto T.

Sure : we have all the documentation stored on
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/mina/site/trunk/

You can checkout the content doing :

$ svn co http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/mina/site/trunk/ mina-site

Now, all the content is in content/mina-project/userguide, and we are
using markdown format for the documentation
(https://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/).

Regarding the Javadoc, the simpler is to checkout the code doing :

$ git clone http://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/mina.git mina then $ git checkout -b 2.0

This is the current developpement branch for MINA 2.0 You can load the
project in Eclipse or Intellij and browse the code, you'll quickly find
some classes with no Javadoc at all...

Hi Alberto !

you can obviously contribute to MINA even if you are not a experienced
developper ! One good startng point would be the documentation which is
lacking seriously. Typically, we have a lot of missing Javadoc in many
of MINA classes and that would be great to get that corrected.

Do not hesitate to ask for directions.

Thanks !
