actually, i joined the mailing list because i though “its hacktoberfest” and “reviewing modules seems to be a good start to get involved in netbeans”. and like you said, i basically stumbled over the requirement to edit the confluence and assign a module to myself. i already requested edit access to the confluence but i could see that this is not given lightly. so, i am also interested for myself: how can i contribute? do i need confluence access or is there a way to be mentored and help without it?
