I want to preface this response by saying that I have not contributed code to Hadoop.
However, I have been interested in doing so and I can share some of my research with those of you who are also interested in contributing. First of all, check out these links for information on how to get a development environment setup and general information about how to contribute: http://apache.org/foundation/getinvolved.html http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToContribute http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/GitAndHadoop Next, the developers contributing to Hadoop are very busy people who are often doing work in their free time. SO general questions like: ³How can I contribute?² are difficult for them to answer every time they come up. Once you have a development environment setup and you can successfully compile/run tests (this is not a small feat) you have a couple of routes to take for contributing: 1. Contribute code you have written that enhances the software in someway that is useful to you, i.e. ³scratching an itch². 2. Look for unassigned issues in JIRA (issues.apache.org/jira/). In the Hadoop projects good started JIRAs are often labeled ³newbie² or ³newbie++². These may be a good place to look at contributing code. 3. You can help the projects by writing documentation on the wiki, or responding to questions on the mailing lists (personally, I enjoy doing this where I can). I hope these suggestions will help you find someways in which you can contribute to the Hadoop ecosystem. Keep in mind that writing documentation and helping others can be as beneficial to the community as writing code.
