Hey community..and help

Hey guys,
Sorry to disturb y'all.
I'm an open source enthusiast and you know, the usual stuff - I wish to
contribute and schist.
But you JIRA has seriously nothing labelled "easy" or "beginner".
Why such discrimination?
I mean, I wanna begin and stuff, so a request - any simple stuff I can do.
Please.
Thanks, fam.

Hi Rahul,

We should definitely do more in that area. The contribute to Groovy page is
a great place to start if you haven't seen it:
http://groovy-lang.org/contribute.html

As per the above page, we use the 'contrib' label to indicate Jira issues
that might be suitable for contribution by non-committers:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%3DGROOVY%20and%20labels%20%3D%20contrib%20AND%20resolution%3DUnresolved

There is also the help wanted app run by Apache that has a few Groovy tasks
in it:
https://helpwanted.apache.org
Any Apache committer can add some more tasks in there for the Groovy
project.
I'll put a link to that on the Contribute to Groovy page.

Also, the Groovy documentation has a bunch of TBD sections which are a
great place to start too.

Cheers, Paul.
