Hello Patrick, thanks for contributing. I would like to point you to these links, which help you to understand Apache and how it all works:
* http://www.apache.org/foundation/getinvolved.html * http://www.apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html Additionally its a good idea to attach your patch to the ticket in Jira directly. Please don't forget to check the check box which allows developers to include your code. Having a signed CLA is always a good idea if you are interested in contributing more stuff. A "formal application" is not necessary anyway, A project elects its committers after after a contributor has shown a understanding and "commitment".
