Not sure... We didn't receive this request. I filed a ticket with INFRA
about it: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-27690

Thank you so much Matthias, for your efforts in finding issues for me.
This
will really help me a lot. I raised a Jira access request 2 days ago, but
did not get any response. Could you help please, if possible?

Hi Kafka community,
I'm a Java developer looking to make my first contribution to Apache
Kafka.
I want to learn about Kafka's architecture and internals through
hands-on
contribution.
I'm interested in working on Kafka Streams or Kafka Core components.
I'm
looking for a small bug fix or improvement that would help me
understand
how Kafka works internally.
I've reviewed the newbie-labeled issues in JIRA, but many already have
associated PRs. Could anyone suggest a suitable first issue or point me
to
code areas that need attention?
Thank you for your guidance!
