Hi Shiva, Anyone is free to contribute to Apache HBase; just open a JIRA, submit a patch, and work with a committer to get it incorporated into the project. No ICLA is needed to contribute to the project. Over time, contributors who positively impact the project may be invited to become committers (for some details on committership, check out [1]).The Apache HBase project management committee is comprised of committers charged with additional responsibilities.
I hope that helps clear things up a bit. 1. https://community.apache.org/contributors/ -Dima On Wed, Mar 7, 2018 at 9:41 PM, Shiva Kumar SS <ss.shivakum...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Team, > > It it immense pleasure to interact with Apache Hbase PMC Group, My name is > Shiva Kumar. > > I have around 10+ Years of work experience in startups, MNC and have been > an entrepreneur once. here is my linkedin profile > https://www.linkedin.com/in/shivakumarss/ > > currently i am associated with Big data team where we extensively use > Hadoop, Hbase and spark for our use cases. > > I have voluntarily went through the code and raised a minor enhancement > request by looking at the code, later realized it is already part of > 1.3.2+. > > <goog_2026112635> > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-20056 > > Have submitted my Individual Contributor License Agreement (ICLA) to apache > and my name is in the http://people.apache.org/unlistedclas.html > > I would love to be part of Apache Hbase PMC team as Individual contributor, > I would appreciate if that opportunity is given to me. > > Awaiting for your response. > > > Regards, > Shiva Kumar SS >
